Water Purification System

Consuming water is vital for survival and for the right functioning of organs. It is essential to sip 8-ounce glasses of water every day. This could avoid certain illness, kidney stones as well as stiff joints. This could also prevent constipation and lessen the symptoms of colds and flu. The need for drinking water increases in hot weather, exercising, vomiting, diarrhea, fever etc.

It's prudent to be conscious for signs of dehydration, especially if the quantity of drinking water is not adequate. The Signs of dehydration embrace the following:

• Excessive levels of thirst
• Sluggishness
• Headaches
• Dry mouth
• Fatigue
• Dizziness
• Weakness
• nausea and omitting

The contaminants found in drinking water can cause serious health problems. Some of the contaminants and their causes are detailed below:

THMs and Chlorine

Chlorine is used in some water system to destroy the bacteria. Whereas this chlorine reacts with organic material present in the water and form trihalomethanes (THMs). The THM affects the nervous system, muscles and also leads to unconsciousness. The chloroform present in this is assumed to be a suspect of cancer and also affects the liver, kidney and heart. The vinyl chloride causes central nervous system depression, dulling of visual and auditory responses and also can cause death. Chlorobenzene causes Irritation to respiratory system, central nervous system depression

Lead, Xylene and Zinc

The lead present in the drinking water can cause serious health problems such as reduced birth weight and premature birth, delayed mental and physical development and impaired mental abilities in children. At high levels of exposure, anemia, kidney damage, and mental retardation, damage to nervous system and reproductive system. Xylene has an effect on mucous membrane irritant, lung congestion, impairment of kidney functions. Zinc causes muscular stiffness and pain, loss of appetite, nauseas

Radon, PCP and Arsenic

Radon is a naturally occurring radioactive gas that has no taste, odor, or color. Waterborne radon released into the air from showers, washing machines, etc. can be inhaled and increase the risk of lung cancer. There also is accumulating evidence of a relationship between the ingestion of radon in drinking water and increased risk of stomach cancer. PCP Pentachlorophenol causes Loss of appetite, respiratory difficulties, anesthesia, coma, death. Arsenic distress malignant tumors of skin and lungs, cramps, spasms, effects to nervous system

Cysts and Lindane

Protozoan parasites, such as Cryptosporidium, oocysts and Giardia lamblia cysts in drinking water, can cause vomiting, diarrhea, and other flu-like symptoms that are longer-lasting and more debilitating than most cases of flu. Lindane affects chronic liver damage, anemia, and leukemia. Toxaphene also causes liver damage

Pesticides and Herbicides 

Many agricultural chemicals like atrazine and alachlor have found their way into groundwater sources. Many pesticides are toxic and are associated with a variety of health problems.

Industrial Chemicals 

The industrial chemicals are the cause for increased risk of cancer and other illness. Some of the industrial chemicals that now threaten the purity and quality of our drinking water include polychlorinated biphenyl's (PCBs), poly nuclear aromatics (PNAs), and volatile organic chemicals (VOCs), such as TCE, benzene, and carbon tetrachloride. Benzene associated with cancer, leukemia, and anemia. Carbon tetrachloride causes central nervous system depression, gastrointestinal effects, liver and kidney damage, coma, death. TCE causes central nervous system effects; confirmed animal carcinogen, anesthesia, unconsciousness, death. PCB damage the skin and liver; nausea, loss of weight, jaundice, coma, death

Other Particulate Contaminants 

The other contaminant particles present in water includes small fibers of asbestos, dirt, rust,worms, residual chlorine, heavy metal ions, algae, unpleasant tastes, dust, bacteria, products disinfection, cryptosporidium, giardia and other particles.

To keep the body healthy, it is very important to drink plenty of water that has been thoroughly filtered.
