But not chloramine, so if you need water that is free of chlorine and chloramine, check what your water provider uses.

Is there any effective process other than carbon filtration for removal of this?

Any aquarium store will sell additives that remove chloramine. Campden tablets work too. As I understand it, not all carbon filters remove chloramine — you need catalytic carbon filters. Chloramine reduction is frequently advertised as a feature.

Could you provide a source for how this works? I'm surprised this would work and have not found anything from a few google searches.

Chlorine in water evaporates into gas over time; you can leave a bucket out for 24h or so and make it safe for aquarium use.

Blender aerates it rapidly; you can do the same with a bubbler. https://www.researchgate.net/publication/330203637_De-chlori...

My guess is that the blender lowers the fluid pressure by cavitation and the dissolved chlorine gas escapes as bubbles.

Never heard this, nice tip! I just leave it out overnight if I am removing chlorine.

You can also boil water to remove chlorine. Stove or electric tea kettle works.
