Tunisia Faces Chlorine Shortage Risking Water Safety
The global chlor-alkali market is experiencing significant disruptions due to rising energy costs and the closure of factories, along with reduced activity in Europe and Asia. This has led to decreased production and fluctuations in prices. Chlorine is used in drinking water treatment and sanitation, as well as in the tourism and swimming pool industries, especially during the summer when demand spikes. If chlorine prices increase or shortages occur, the water sector and related industries could be affected, with risks that institutions might reduce disinfection doses or resort to unregulated products, threatening public health and water safety. Tunisia is advised to take proactive measures such as securing strategic reserves and diversifying suppliers to ensure a continuous supply, particularly given the ongoing disruptions in the global chlorine market.
