WATER PURIFICATION SYSTEM ONKAR Water Purification System introduces its water purification system with Unique Qualities. This System is designed on Canadian Technology made with food grade materials. It's the only system in One-Piece hosing, three jars/stages. These Filters provide more safe and purified water. PURPOSE OF WATER PURIFICATIONPresumably of drinking water comes from a municipal system a shallow dug-well or a deep drilled-well, each type of water supply is more or less vulnerable to different kinds of pollutants, because surface water (river, lakes, reservoirs), ground water (underground aquifers) and treated water, each are exposed to environmental contaminants in different ways. Obviously, the hydrological characteristics of the area you are in localized activates and sites that creates pollution such as factories, agricultural spraying or impurities such as lwad and other metals can be introduced by the piping that delivers the water to your tap. Biological
Impurities -- Bacteria, Viruses and Parasites
Water is essential for life, making up two-thirds of the body weight. Water is so vital that survival is impossible if you abstain from it for more then three to four days. All body fluids contain water as it forms a medium by which nourishment is taken to every cell of the body and the waste material is removed. It helps regulates body and keeps your digestive and urinary systems healthy and your skin elastic. To maintain a good water balance you need about two liters of water daily.
The World
Health Organization (WHO) has laid down that potable water should have
certain qualities; viz, it should be: Water is
considered contaminated or polluted when it contains infective and
parasitic agents, poisonous chemical substances, agricultural pollutants
like fertilizers and pesticide, thermal pollutants, radioactive
substances, industrial waste and sewage. All of these are man-made and can
attack you in two ways - biologically and chemically. Boiling:After straining through a fine clean cloth, boil water for 10 to 15 minutes (after it has reached the boiling point) to kill all bacteria, spores, cysts, ova and viruses known to man. However boiling does not have any residual effect and the water can get contaminated again. Therefore it is wise to boil in the same container as it is stored. Boiling also removes temporary hardness and the alters the taste of the water, and precipitate the calcium carbonate white despite in the container. This is harmless. |
Filtration:a) Candle Filters: A porcelain candle coated with fine metallic silver or with redibne (Zero B) is used as a germicide. The later is not meant for people who are intolerant to rodine. The bacteria that come io contact with the filter surface are killed by interaction of the silver lons which are liberated in to the water. b) Purifies: They involve three stage process; a ceramic or synthetic material filter through which the water is passed, then through a bed of carbon and granulated silver, after which it is finally exposed to ultra violet radiation which destroys water borne organisms including viruses. There purifies must be serviced regularly and the candle change every year as ultraviolet radiation is detective in muddy or discolored water. c) Ozonizers (Good Water): Only recently launched in the market, there also microbe and three stage purification process,. In the first stage a micron filter removes all suspended solids and particulates impurities and makes the water crystal clear. The clear water then passes through a silver impregnated bad taste and foul odor. In the third stage ozone ( a gas derived from oxygen) is injected into the water which kills all bacteria, viruses and other micro organisms. The advantage ionizers hold over other purifies is the they work equally well on stored or turbid water. Chemical Disinfection:1. Chlorine: It can be used in the form of tables or solution. Liquid "Clenwat" is convenient for traveling. One bottle consoles Rs. 10 purities 10 liters of water. 2. Iodine: It may used for emergency disinfection of water. Two drops of 2% ethanol solution of Iodine will suffice for one liter of clean water. Allow the iodine to act for 20 to 30 minutes before using the water.
Bottled Water:The Indian marked today is flooded
with all kinds of mineral waters claimed to be pure. Mineral waters means
that's it comes from a natural source like a spring or well. Make sure the
the bottle is property sealed and is opened in front of you. These bottles
are not meant to be reused therefore make sure that you crush them before
disposal.
Water Borne Diseases:Viral: Viral hepatitis (jaundice),
poliomyelitis |
