sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl)
Explanation:
I assume the 'cloor...' is redundant.

ref:

Als schoonmaakmiddel kan het best een synthetisch vetoplossend schoonmaakproduct gebruiken anders krijgt u op den duur doffe vloeren. Het meest werkzaam bij de bestrijding van virussen en bacteriën is Natrium Hypochlorite beter bekend als bleekloog of chloor.

liquid chlorine


Explanation:
"Liquid chlorine is another type which is created by bubbling the chlorine gas through a solution of caustic soda. The yellow liquid (stronger, but chemically identical to bleach) has 10-15% available chlorine, and has a pH on the other end of the scale at 13. Liquid Chlorine is called Sodium Hypochlorite (NaOCl) and because it is already in solution, sodium hypo produces hypochlorous acid instantly when it contacts water. The liquid can be poured directly into the pool, but it is recommended to use a diaphragm or peristaltic pump. The use of liquid chlorine is more dominant in larger commercial pools which have it delivered into 55 gallon vats. For most residential pools, its lower cost seems to be outweighed by its difficulty in use and the amount of acid required to counteract its pH of 13. Use care when handling as this chemical is corrosive to just about everything." (http://poolcenter.com/chlor.htm#CL2FAQ5)
The other system uses electrolysis of salt water: "There are two types of chlorine generators in use today on residential pools. The first one is a brine unit. This unit does not require the pool to have salt added to it. A tank or chamber at the pool equipment area has a predetermined amount of salt in it. Through electrolysis, chlorine is produced and immediately injected into the pool circulation system. These units are messy and produce by-products that are not simple to dispose of. These are the less common of the two types.

The recommended unit is the type requiring that salt be added to the pool. There are two types of these units. One has the chlorine-producing cell and the electronics installed at the equipment while the other has the cell installed in the deck near the pool with the electronics usually located at the equipment. The deck unit works on the principle of convection. It makes chlorine even if the pump is off" (http://phoenix.about.com/cs/wet/a/saltpool01_2.htm)
