Water Potabilization
Water flow can be characterized by different types of substances, harmless or harmful to the human body.
To make it suitable for human consumption, specificwater treatments are made, depending on theorigin and contaminants in the fluid.
Supply from alternative sources to deepsources is increasingly used, such as drawing from aquifers, the sea or streams.
The processes put in place to remove unwanted substances can be physical, chemical-physical or biological.
In the case, for example, of well water potabilization, a filtration system combined with the dosing of a chemical oxidizer, such as sodium hypochlorite, is used to make the fluid free of microorganisms.
In case the source issea water instead, a desalinator, which involves passing the water flow over specific reverse osmosis membranes.
With sampling from rivers , the process applied is clear flocculation and sterilization with dosing of chemicals and some disinfectant agents, such as sodium hypochlorite, as well as the passage over a bed of activated carbon.
