Currently in Honduras, there are flow controllers treating water with Calcium Hypochlorite. An issue has arisen however, making it more difficult to effectively continue this type of treatment process. Calcium hypochlorite reacts with carbon dioxide to form calcium carbonate and release chlorine gas.

2Ca(ClO)2 + 2CO2 → 2CaCO3 + 2Cl2 + O2
