Method and Kit for Reducing Cyanuric Acid Levels in Pool Water

摘要

A method and kit is provided for reducing cyanuric acid levels in pool water comprising the steps of adding a reducing agent to remove substantially all of the chlorine from the water, adding a source of melamine to react with the cyanuric acid to form melamine cyanurate, and removing the precipitated melamine cyanyurate. Following completion of the method, the pool water is then re-chlorinated. The application of this method addresses the “green water” problem typically associated with the removal of cyanuric acid from swimming pools with melamine.
