Water Treatment

Water treatment is any process that improves the quality of water to make it appropriate for a specific end-use. The end-use may be drinking, industrial water supply, irrigation, river flow maintenance, water recreation or many other uses, including being safely returned to the environment

Household Water Treatment

Filtration Systems removes impurities from water by means of a physical barrier, chemical, and/or biological process.

Water Softeners reduces the hardness of the water. A water softener typically uses sodium or potassium ions to replace calcium and magnesium ions, the ions that create “hardness.”

Distillation Systems convert impure water, which is boiled and the steam is collected and condensed in a separate container, leaving many of the solid contaminants behind.

Disinfection is a physical or chemical process in which pathogenic microorganisms are deactivated or killed. Examples of chemical disinfectants are chlorine, chlorine dioxide, and ozone. Examples of physical disinfectants include ultraviolet light, electronic radiation, and heat.
