WHAT IS WATER TREATMENT?
Before finding an answer to the question of what is water purification, it is necessary to know the water. Water, as everyone knows, is a structure that is considered the source of life formed by the union of 2 hydrogen atoms and an oxygen atom. But water is not just about these molecules. Water, which has a universal solvent feature, has the ability to incorporate the substances it comes into contact with. These substances may be beneficial substances that the body will need or may be unwanted harmful substances in the body. Water treatment is the work of removing the harmful substances in the water from the water, that is, purifying them.
While water treatment works as a natural process in nature, the crowding of the world's population has led to rapid contamination of water resources such as industrialization and the gradual depletion of clean water resources. At this point, humanity had to find methods of decontamination by artificial and rapid methods. Many people today take the word water treatment as antipathetic. However, even the so-called natural spring waters are purified water. The water purified by nature is inadequate with the rapid progression of humanity consciously unconsciously in technology. Today, many groundwater rises to the earth in a dirty way. Unfortunately, we have damaged nature's refining capacity. There are two things humanity can do here. The first is to bring the polluted waters to pollution levels that nature can treat themselves (wastewater treatment) and the second is to bring clean water sources that nature cannot treat quickly to levels that will not disturb our health with the treatment process (water treatment or clean water drinking water treatment). Of course, our source of life, water and other elements that may pollute our environment (air, solid waste, etc.) should be taken into account and we should not impose burdens on nature that it cannot exceed knowing its treatment capacity.
So how is water treatment done? Water treatment is a natural process that works in nature. Surface waters are polluted by various factors, the purest form of water is carried to the sky by evaporation, and this water descends from the sky to the earth as a mostly clean source and constitutes the continuation of living life. Again, the water polluted by various factors on the surface passes through various additions in the soil and is free from the pollution it hosts through a filtering (filtration). Of course, water can't be expected to be completely pure here. A wide variety of rocks underground dissolve in water, giving different properties to the water. These processes can take hundreds of years underground. This is how the majority of healing waters are formed. Artificially invented water treatment techniques are also techniques inspired by nature. Mankind has no time to wait. Therefore, we need to be able to perform the treatment process much faster than nature by imitating the water treatment process in nature. Filtration systems, which are copied by following the purification of water from pollution by advancing underground, give much faster results than in nature with the contribution of science. Again, with the principle of ion exchange inspired by nature, the pollutions in the water are purified by replacing them with harmless substances. Reverse osmosis (RO, reverse osmosis) water treatment systems were invented, inspired by the opposite of the transition from osmatic pressure difference in plants to very dense environment to less dense environment. However, even in today's technology, harmful useful substances in water cannot be separated and purifyed. However, it is possible that after purified water can be brought to the properties we want. However, various waters in nature can show different characteristics depending on their environment. It is the structure of natural minerals and water molecules that provide these properties. After the water is purified, these properties can be reintroduced to water molecules with the addition of these minerals. In this way, an effective water treatment process will be processed.
The water purification technique developed for the NASA space base is reverse osmosisThe reverse osmosis water treatment process, which was discovered within a need for the American space base Nasada, has entered our homes today. Water purification on the spacecraft was definitely a need. Because going to space was a costly business. The scientific work that scientists would carry out so that we could develop the technology in space could take months. The water needed by a team of 5 astronauts in the spaceship would be 10-15 liters per day. For a 6-month study, this requirement roughly corresponds to 1800-2700 liters of water. Since there was no water source in space, it would be possible to take this water from the earth or to treat it with a water treatment system that would be developed by taking advantage of the water cycle on the earth and use it repeatedly. The difficulty and cost of transporting tons of water upwards with the help of rockets has led scientists to the second option. Water on Earth is in a constant cycle, the amount of water never changes. Living things are born and grow up, they use water during this time, but they also return the water they use to nature. Even in death, the water in the living body evaporates, mixes with the soil and takes place in the continuous cycle by being taken into other living bodies. Could this process be in a small space capsule? Of course it can, but it's not like time spent in nature. Reverse osmosis is a technique that allows astronauts to reuse water that they extract through feces and urine. This is how it works in principle on the devices in our homes, but it is a much simpler form. Ultimately, the water that comes into our homes is not as polluted as the astronauts take out. Here it can be clearly seen that water treatment arises in line with a need.
Water treatment has also entered our homes in line with a need. Our water resources are no longer clean enough. The water, which was transmitted to the houses by chlorination only 50-60 years ago, can be transmitted to our homes after passing through the treatment systems established to purify the purification from some pollution. The fact that the water bottles and bottled water sold on the market are both costly and the harmful chemicals contained in the water container cause health problems due to the danger of getting into the water has revealed the fact that the water coming into our house can be treated and drunk in a healthy and cost-effective way.
