Chlorides

Since fishery salt generally originates from the sea, it contains impurities such as chlorides and sulphates of calcium and magnesium, and sodium sulphate and carbonates. ❋ Unknown (1982)

Recent fish kills in northern West Virginia have caused increased scrutiny of these neglected discharges of pollutants such as chlorides, selenium, barium and cadmium. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Some of that chemical-laced water returns to the surface as a briny stew, carrying sulfates, chlorides, metals and naturally occurring radioactivity that the water picks up deep underground. ❋ Unknown (2011)

Here's why: Fake trees are manufactured using controversial polyvinyl chlorides or PVCs. ❋ Ralph Gardner Jr. (2011)

The one thing that can't be removed easily, except at great expense, he said, is the dissolved solids and chlorides that make the fluids so salty. ❋ AP (2011)

DEP spokesman Dan Spadoni said the agency has taken water samples from Towanda Creek and a tributary to screen for chlorides, sulfates, arsenic, barium, iron, magnesium and strontium. ❋ Unknown (2011)

Lloyd's discovery of the "death bacillus" of the sea toad, and his experiments on it with potassium cyanide, sent his name and that of his university ringing round the world; nor was Paul a whit behind when he succeeded in producing laboratory colloids exhibiting amoeba-like activities, and when he cast new light upon the processes of fertilization through his startling experiments with simple sodium chlorides and magnesium solutions on low forms of marine life. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Workers are also exposed to cadmium, chromium, polyvinyl chlorides, brominated flame retardants, and mercury—a toxic cocktail that can cause brain damage, cancer, or kidney failure.15 ❋ Jonathan Watts (2010)

The government also will start to levy export duties on six more rare-earth metals, rare-earth fluorides and rare-earth chlorides, in addition to existing tariffs ranging from 15% to 25% on roughly 30 types of rare earth primary products. ❋ Unknown (2010)

Samples of ash were found to contain 0.25% water soluble salts, mainly as sulphates and chlorides in the form of sodium salts (Moen and McLuca, 1980). ❋ Unknown (2009)

For in addition to the resort, this town on Siberia's Lake Baikal — the oldest, largest and deepest freshwater lake in the world — is home to the Baikal Pulp and Paper Mill, which has been belching foul-smelling sulfates into the air and chlorides, phenols and other chemicals into the lake since it was built during the Cold War. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Many popular erotic toys are made of polyvinyl chlorides (PVC) -- plastics long decried by eco-activists for the toxins released during their manufacture and disposal -- and softened with phthalates, a controversial family of chemicals. ❋ Unknown (2009)

HCl and other water-soluble chlorides, yes, but free chlorine is pretty rare in nature. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Instead of filtration, the prison relies on high levels of chlorination to suppress fecal contamination, so there are high levels of chlorides (i.e., the "C" in PCE, TCE and DCE) in the water. ❋ Unknown (2009)
