Chlorinated describes something that has been treated or combined with chlorine.
Pool water is chlorinated to kill bacteria.
Chlorinated tap water has trace amounts added during municipal treatment.
In chemistry, chlorinated compounds contain chlorine atoms bonded to other elements: chlorinated solvents, chlorinated hydrocarbons.
The term often appears in environmental contexts discussing contamination or chemical safety.
