A portable apparatus for adding a dechlorination agent into a fluid stream
prior to discharge and a method for treatment of chlorinated water. The
portable apparatus can connect in any part of a fluid flow system. A
bypass is provided such that a controlled portion of the fluid stream is
diverted to a dechlorination agent. The dechlorination agent dissolves in
the bypassed fluid flow. The bypassed, dechlorination agent enriched
fluid re-enters and mixes with the fluid flow that was not bypassed. As
the two streams mix, the total flow receives the required amount of
dechlorination before being discharged into the environment. A valve
controls proportional flow of the fluid stream through the bypass.
