What are the common water purification methods?

The commonly used water purification methods are water purification and water filtration, and water purification is divided into three methods: water disinfection, boiling and distillation.

1, water purification

(1) water disinfection

Commonly used water disinfection methods include physical disinfection and chemical disinfection.

Physical disinfection is mainly through ultraviolet radiation, while chemical disinfection can be divided into chlorine disinfection and ozone disinfection.

(2) boiling

Boiling water is a traditional way of purifying water, which only needs to be heated and boiled. When the water reaches the boiling point, it can be drunk after cooling. Boiling water can kill microorganisms and parasites immediately.

(3) distillation

Distillation involves boiling water to release steam, and then cooling the collected steam to form liquid again. Some unclean impurity particles may be left in the distillation process, so this water purification method is not the best solution. Although distillation cannot completely purify water, most of it can be purified.

2. Water filtration

Sometimes, the purification of water is not enough to make it drinkable. The amount of dissolved salts and minerals determines the purity of water. If salt and minerals are out of balance, it will produce bad smell or unpleasant smell. Filtration can help remove the elements that cause imbalance, leaving only drinkable water. Using activated carbon may be an ideal choice, because it can restore balance and keep the water pure.
