dechlorinating

Stripping pool chemical

Dechlorinating is removing chlorine from something, typically water.

Aquarium hobbyists dechlorinate tap water before adding fish, since chlorine harms aquatic life: Let the dechlorinating drops sit for a few minutes before introducing the fish.

Municipal water treatment may also dechlorinate before releasing water into natural systems.
