Is
Your Water Polluted?
| Fact
1:
|
There
are 22 kinds of pollutants including heavy
metals, leads, arsenic, etc., existing in
drinking water. |
| Fact
2:
|
Hundreds of
pollutants can't be controlled and no every
pollutant can be tested out. |
| Fact
3:
|
Your drinking water
may contain the pollutants; germs, asbestos,
lead, radio active minerals, particles and
industrial scraps, animal waste, virus, microbes
etc. |
| Fact
4:
|
There are now
thousands of chemical compounds containing toxin
and new chemical compounds will be invented and
used every year. these chemical compounds
will pollute the ground and under ground
water. And some of these chemical
compounds intruding into the drinking water have
been approved as the cause of variety of
diseases. |

Selection and Comparison
Of Drinking Water:
| 1 |
Reverse Osmosis
Purification
- Removes 99% of all the
Total Dissolved Solids, such as, heavy-
metals, bacteria and viruses from the Tap
Water.
- No need to boil water -
Energy saving.
- The water is rich in Oxygen
which is good for our blood.
- Water is sweet and tasty.
- Pure water costs less than 50 Paise per
Litre, when made in house.
|
 |
| 2 |
The Bottled Water
- Quality isn't certain
- Sanitation is questionable.
- Price isn't cheap.
-
Costs about Rs. 2 per Litre!
- Inconvenient depending on
outside source.
- Fear of pesticide in water.
|
 |
| 3 |
Boiled Water
- Energy wasted in heating.
- Can only kill germs.
- Quickens the reaction of
organic substances and chlorine in the water
to produce tri-alkalic ethane.
- While boiling water, steam
boils and the polluted density in the water
increases.
- Salt deposit of chemicals
in the vessel.
|
 |
| 4 |
Distilled Method
- High power cost and energy
wasting for long-term use.
- No oxygen in the water and
bad taste.
- Maintenance is often
required, It's more cumbersome.
- Organic volatile matters
such as tri-alkalic methane can't be
eliminated.
|
 |
| 5 |
Softener Ion Exchange
Method, Electrolysis Ion Water De-Mineralization
- High operating cost.
- Professional maintenance
needed.
- Only heavy metals can be
eliminated, but there is a lot of chemical
left, that can result in heart/blood vessels
diseases or hypertension. Most of
organic compounds and germs can't also be
eliminated.
- Water does not taste
good.
|
 |
| 6 |
Active Carbon
Filtration
- Quality isn't certain,
uniform and its efficiency has big
differences.
- Germs, heavy metals,
asbestos, nitrate and salt can't be
eliminated.
- Becomes a growing place for
germs.
- Suitable for odour removal
and taste.
- Effective as a pre
treatment or post treatment.
|
 |
| 7 |
UV Sterilisation
- Only germs can be
killed. Its effect is no better than
boiling water.
- High cost. Lamp tube
must be replaced/cleaned in every 3 or 6
months for effective sterilisation.
- Pollutants can't be
eliminated except germs killing.
- Does not remove chemicals and
heavy metals.
- Hard water makes the UV
lamp ineffective by scaling.
- Taste of water doesn't
change.

LIKE MOST OF THE PEOPLE, YOU MAY BE THINKING YOUR
DRINKING WATER HAS NO PROBLEM!!!
Generally people have the following impression on
running water as detailed below:
- The running water is pure,
clean, healthy and can be safely drunk!
- The equipment of the
running water can eliminate all pollutants!
- The government understands
what particles exists in the running water
and thoroughly inspects them to assure
safety!
