| Abstract | Bromine is registered for use in water filters to purify drinking water aboard U.S. Naval ships and offshore oil well platforms. It also is used as a general disinfectant and sanitizer in indoor, non-food contact areas such as commercial establishments, hospitals and households, to control bacteria and fungi. Bromine pesticide products may be formulated as a solid soluble concentrate or ready-to-use liquid. They are applied using a water filter unit, drip dispenser, automated metering system, fogger, or hand held or power sprayer. |
