every bleach bottle sold in the country would be worthless. In a sealed container chlorine will stay in solution for a considerable period. I worked in an environmental monitoring and analysis laboratory for 20 years and we did hundreds of chlorine analysis down into the ppm range. Chlorine is much more stable in solution than many people believe. However, I would agree that the pelleted chlorine product sold for swimming pool use would be more convenient to transport, and would take up less space.

My biggest concern with CCADC is the disposal procedure for their used chlorine solution. In many States, this would be a violation of environmental codes to dump non-dechlorinated water at this concentration, whether it was away from the water body or not. The easy and environmentally conscience decision would be to dechlorinate before dumping with sodium thiosulfate. It is cheap and can be purchased at the same places that sell the chlorine pellets. Other than that, they have a pretty good procedure.
