Ahdorma® Reverse Osmosis Water Filters & Water Distillers

Drinking water

Drinking water is water that is intended to be drunk by humans. Water of sufficient quality to serve as drinking water is called potable water whether it is used as such or not. Although most fresh water sources are drinkable by humans, they can be a disease vector or cause long-term health problems if they do not meet certain water quality guidelines.

Where land and space are available, water may be treated in slow sand filter beds. These rely on biological treatment processes for their action rather than physical filtration. Slow sand filters are carefully constructed using graded layers of sand with the coarsest at the base and the finest at the top. Drains buried at the base of the filter convey treated water away for disinfection. When a new slow sand filter bed is brought into use, raw water is carefully decanted onto the filter material until a water depth of 1 to 3m is achieved, dependant on the size of the filter bed. The water passing through the filter for the first few hours is recirculated through the filter and not put into supply. Within a few hours, a biological film comprised of bacteria, protozoa, fungi, and algae builds on the surface of the sand. This is the Special layer and it is this layer that removes all the impurities. An effective slow sand filter may remain in service for many weeks or even months if the pre-treatment is well designed and produces an excellent quality of water which physical methods of water treatment rarely achieve.
