Large quantities of hydrogen peroxide are added to a swimming pool to “shock”
it. Shocking breaks down waste products and re-establishes a positive level of
sanitizer. While many types of shock can be used with chlorine or bromine pools,
only hydrogen peroxide can be used to shock biguanide pools.
Hydrogen peroxide, H

, is a colorless compound that is widely used as a
bleaching or decolorizing agent in the manufacture of many commercial products.
As an oxidizing compound it is also used in the treatment of sewage to reduce
odors and corrosion due to hydrogen sul de. It may also be used as a sanitizing
agent for water treatment. Hydrogen peroxide is relatively unstable, and for this
reason it dissipates quickly and leaves no residuals.
APPLICATION: Drinking, industrial, domestic and swimming pool waters
RANGE: 0–80 ppm Hydrogen Peroxide
MDL: 0.5 ppm
METHOD: Hydrogen peroxide reacts with an excess of potassium
iodide through the action of a catalyst and buffer to
release an equivalent amount of iodine. The iodine in
turn reacts with diethyl-p-phenylenediamine (DPD) to
produce a pink-red color in proportion to the iodine
released.
SAMPLE HANDLING
& PRESERVATION:
Hydrogen peroxide is not stable in aqueous solutions.
Exposure to sunlight and agitation will accelerate the
reduction of hydrogen peroxide in dilute solutions. For
best results start analysis immediately after sampling.
INTERFERENCES: The likelihood of other oxidizing compounds interfering
with this method is eliminated by the presence of
hydrogen peroxide. Manganese may interfere and
should be removed before analysis
