A simple way to think of orp is through |
Dechlorination. Chlorine is a strong oxidant - adding chlorine to the water changes the orp to a positive value. The chlorine solution oxidizes Organics and kills microorganisms. Since this strongly oxidative solution would be harmful to the environment, it needs to be neutralized by adding a strong reductant such as sodium thiosulfate. |
