ABSTRACT:
A process is described for removing available chlorine from a depleted recirculating anolyte brine of a chlor-alkali cell. After the spent brine is removed from the cell, and typically after dechlorination, it is reacted with an amount of an organic hydroxyl moiety-containing compound soluble in said brine for a residence time sufficient to substantially reduce the residual dissolved chlorine and hypohalite ion remaining in said brine prior to resaturation and reuse in said cell. Suitable hydroxyl moiety-containing compounds include alcohols and saccharides.
