Maintaining crystal clear, comfortable and inviting pool water is a top priority for every pool professional and achieving it doesn’t have to be complicated. Clear, comfortable and inviting pool water is a top priority for every pool professional.
But if you’re battling strong odors, swimmer irritation, dull water, high combined chlorine, or free chlorine that won’t hold — even when the chemistry looks right — you’re not alone. These are some of the most common and frustrating water quality issues in today’s pools.
In our upcoming webinar, we will explore how active oxygen technology, powered by Oxone™ Monopersulfate Compound, can help solve these persistent problems and transform routine pool care.
In this session, you’ll learn:
- Why chloramines, odors, and irritation keep coming back
- How organic load drives high chlorine demand and impacts water clarity
- How Oxone™-based products help oxidize contaminants, reduce chloramine formation, and support clearer, more comfortable pool water
- How to apply these concepts practically and effectively in real pools
Join us as we break down the science behind active oxygen, demonstrate its advantages over traditional approaches, and show how it can efficiently address the common pool water challenges you deal with every day.

Pulp and paper producers are operating in an increasingly complex environment where microbial control, regulatory compliance and operational reliability are closely linked. This webinar explores how evolving EU biocidal regulations impact pulp & paper processes—and why non‑oxidizing biocides are essential for stable, safe and future‑ready production.
What you will learn
- Why pulp & paper production systems are highly susceptible to microbial growth and biofilm formation
- How microbial contamination affects process stability, product quality, safety and operating costs
- Why non‑oxidizing biocides are essential where oxidizing treatments reach their limits
- How evolving EU BPR requirements and Union Authorisation shape long‑term compliance and biocide availability
Join us to gain practical insights into microbial risks along the paper‑making process and to understand how regulatory developments shape the long‑term availability of critical biocidal solutions.

Ultra-short-chain PFAS pose a significant challenge due to their high mobility and limited removal by conventional technologies. This webinar introduces the newly developed Lewatit® MDS TP 108 ion exchange resin and presents a case study demonstrating effective removal of ultra-short-chain PFAS from water matrices. In addition, the Lewatit® portfolio offers tailored solutions including Lewatit® TP 108 DW for drinking water applications and Lewatit® MP 62 WS, which can be efficiently regenerated using sodium hydroxide. The application of ion exchange resins in drinking water is discussed and performance is compared with activated carbon, highlighting how both technologies complement each other to optimize treatment efficiency as well as CAPEX and OPEX..

The recent decisions applicable to methylisothiazolinone (MIT) in European consumer applications are reshaping preservation strategies across the home care sector. Driven by evolving regulatory expectations, including restrictions under the European Biocidal Products Regulation (BPR) and increasing scrutiny of sensitizing substances, formulators and compliance teams are facing growing pressure to reformulate while maintaining product safety, performance, and shelf life.
This webinar delivers a concise overview of the European regulatory drivers behind the future of MIT in home care applications, followed by a focused technical discussion on suitable preservation alternatives. Attendees will gain practical insights into regulatory compliance, performance considerations, and reformulation strategies that support both short-term transition and long-term regulatory resilience.

Modern formulators face the challenge of balancing effective stain removal with growing consumer demands for low environmental impact, low-temperature cleaning solutions—all while maintaining cost efficiency. Recent studies in our laboratory have explored diverse applications of Oxone™ Monopersulfate Compound in home care, including textiles, dishwashing, and hard surface cleaning.
Our research highlights the potential of potassium monopersulfate (KMPS) as a superior oxidizing agent:
Oxone™ Monopersulfate Compound delivers outstanding performance against hard-to-remove stains, even in cold water thanks to its high oxidative strength and fast reaction kinetics.
Compared to traditional sodium percarbonate-TAED systems, Oxone™ Monopersulfate Compound enables efficient cold-water washing, shorter cleaning cycles, and the development of compact, high-performance formulations.
The non-chlorine chemistry rapidly breaks down into potassium and sulfate salts, which are of low environmental concern. All of which help to align with sustainability goals.
This presentation will showcase the benefits of Oxone™ Monopersulfate Compound for home care applications, summarize key findings from our research, and propose innovative formulation strategies for the future.

Following the SVHC listing of Decabromodiphenylethane (DBDPE) the industry realized that they have to find and approve new flame retardants to replace DBDPE in their formulations. With Emerald Innovation® 5000, LANXESS offers a suitable alternative flame retardant. This presentation will provide a short introduction into the regulatory challenge using DBDPE and in a second part present Emerald Innovation® 5000 and provide suggestions and ideas how to replace DBDPE with Emerald Innovation® 5000 to achieve desired flame retardant properties.
This online presentation provides a good starting point for formulators dealing with this challenging situation.
Who should attend? Technical marketing & sales, formulators, developers, material scientists, and all interested stakeholders.
There will be a Q&A session following the webinar presentation.

Toxic, harmful, and undesirable trace species in water are a growing concerns. They are often difficult to treat using conventional technologies due to their low concentration or unfavorable selectivity. When it comes to purifying industrial wastewater the removal of toxic substances, both ionic and non-ionic, is a crucial task.
LANXESS offers a wide range of special Lewatit® ion exchange resins and adsorbers that remove many types of heavy metal ions and organic pollutants efficiently. Due to the high selectivity of the resins, extremely low effluent concentrations are economically achievable, thus providing cost savings by achieving minimal or even zero liquid discharge. Additionally, precious metals can be recovered and their value is retained by means of recycling.
In addition to Lewatit® ion exchange resins, LANXESS’ special granular iron oxide adsober, Bayoxide®, provides a unique solution for removing arsenic and phosphate with high efficiency and easy operation. During this webinar, our speaker Dr. Dirk Steinhilber will cover the fundamentals of Lewatit® and Bayoxide® and how they are able to remove various contaminants from wastewater.
Tuesday, Nov. 11 | 09:00 - 10:00 CET
This webinar will show you how advanced Lewatit® ion exchange resins can be used specifically for the removal of PFAS (per- and polyfluoroalkyl substances) from industrial wastewater.

Topics covered:
- PFAS basics and differences: Brief overview of PFAS structures and properties (including ultrashort-chain and short-chain PFAS), and why these distinctions matter for treatment solutions.
- PFAS removal mechanism: How do Lewatit® ion exchange resins work to adsorb and eliminate PFAS?
- Recommended customer testing: Which analyses are important for selecting the right solution?
- Case studies: Practical examples dealing with high PFAS concentrations in wastewater. Performance comparison between single-use Lewatit® ion exchange resins and regenerable products.
