Water Purification

  • Contaminants come from leaking sewage pipelines, factories discharge, agriculture run-off
  • Sources and types of contaminants can be many such as pesticides, herbicides, hospital waste, industrial effluents, waste land fills,
    heavy metals, microbes and other harmful organic and inorganic compounds.
  • Two billion people worldwide do not have access to clean water.
  • Most surface waters are first treated with chemicals that combine with dirt particles.
  • The dirt is then filtered out of the water, making it clear.
  • Then the water is disinfected. In addition treatment is needed to solve special problems.
  • Treatment, as described above, does not remove dissolved toxic chemicals.
  • A chemical disinfectant is added to the drinking water at the treatment plant.
  • Chlorine is the most common disinfectant.

Water Treatment Agents

  • The market is  divided into  sub segments; Coagulants and Flocculants,
    Biocides and Disinfectants,
    Defoamers and Defoaming agents,
    pH Adjustors and Neutralizers,
    and others.

  • Research on Carbon nano filtration membranes and nano catalysts like iron, silver and titanium dioxide for water treatment applications is a fast growing field

  • According to the Indian government only
    30 % of the rural population had access to safe drinking (tap) water in the country.
    55 % depend on tube well or hand pumps to meet their drinking water requirement.

  • 15 % of rural populations were still looking for a dependable source of water.

  • In urban areas, 74 % depend on tap water and 18 % on tube well and hand pump
