dc.description.abstract | On a scorching summer day, there's nothing more refreshing than taking a dip in a cool, crystal- clear swimming pool. However, it's not just water that fills those pristine pools; it's also the people who use them. Unfortunately, some swimmers contribute more than just splashes and laughter - they introduce urine into the pool water. This raises questions about the chemical reactions that occur when urine meets the chlorine used to disinfect swimming pools, the potential risks invo lved and the byproducts that can result from this peculiar combination. | en_GB |
