Importance of Water Purification

Availability of pure and safe drinking water is becoming scarcer by the day. Today’s water has different types of deadly contaminants unheard of in the past. Excessive dissolved solids (minerals), heavy metals such as lead, copper, iron, mercury, arsenic, chemical pollutants like insecticides, pesticides and new-age biological contaminants (Eg., bacteria, virus protozoa, fungi, parasites etc) can wreak havoc on human body.

It is estimated that 85% of all human diseases happen due to water contamination. While biological contaminations cause various infections, consumption of chemically contaminated water can result in long-term chronic illnesses such as kidney stones, digestive disorders, cardiovascular diseases, intestinal catarrh, fluorosis and even cancer. It has also been found that a majority of the stomach ailments are caused by polluted drinking water.

Among many reasons that are attributed to the rapid deterioration of water quality, some crucial factors could be the depleting ground water table, rapid urbanization, poor sewerage systems leading to sewage mixture, usage of harmful chemicals in household works and partially treated industrial effluents that percolate into the ground.

With conventional methods of water purification having already become obsolete, using a modern water purifier is, today, considered an absolute necessity in homes, offices, commercial establishments and industries. Massive advancements in science and technology has led to the development of highly effective water purifiers that consistently deliver pure water.

RO Water Purifiers | UV Water Purifiers

Water purification is basically the process of removing physical, chemical and biological contaminants and making the water suitable for consumption and other related uses. While there are many technologies available for water purification, the most advanced and sought- after technologies for drinking water purification are Ultraviolet Rays and Reverse Osmosis.

The days of generalized water purification are passe. Water quality differs from place to place on account of geological, topographical, hydrological, meteorological, biological and many other associated factors.

Since visual inspection and other observation methods are not helpful in determining the quality of water, a proper and detailed lab analysis is very important to understand the water characteristics and then decide on the most appropriate method of purification.

At Korgen, this is exactly where we start. Our specialist team begins with testing your water (in-house or lab analysis), meticulously evaluate your purification requirements and then suggest the most suitable technology and water purifier that meets your needs.

With the right pre and post treatment cartridges, RO water purifiers can comprehensively purify water by removing the physical, chemical and biological contaminants present in the water. RO Purifiers are most helpful in purifying ground water having excessive total dissolved solids. On the other hand, UV water purifiers remove only physical and biological contaminants and are therefore useful for purifying surface water. (Eg., Corporation supplied dam water)
