HOW MUCH DO YOU KNOW ABOUT BROMINE?
Bromine is one element of the periodic table, its chemical symbol is Br. It is a reddish-brown liquid and is never naturally found in its elemental form but rather in inorganic compounds, also known as bromides, and in natural organo-bromine compounds. These are found in soils, salts, air, seawater and in living organisms.
Around 500,000 tons of bromine are estimated to be produced annually on a worldwide basis. The largest single use of bromine is in fire safety. Since its discovery, bromine compounds have also been used for water treatment, reduction of mercury emissions, oil drilling, crop protection, energy storage and generation, production of pharmaceuticals, catalyst for plastics (PTA), rubber, photo chemistry, still used for X-rays, absorption systems for air conditioning.
