  2. Organisms involved in water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Organisms_involved_in...

    Bacteria. Bacteria are probably the most significant group of organisms involved in water purification and are ubiquitous in all biological purification environments. Some such as Sphaerotilus natans are typically associated with grossly polluted waters, but even in such environments the bacteria are degrading the organic material present.

  3. Water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_purification

    Water purification is the process of removing undesirable chemicals, biological contaminants, suspended solids, and gases from water. The goal is to produce water that is fit for specific purposes. Most water is purified and disinfected for human consumption (drinking water), but water purification may also be carried out for a variety of other ...

  4. Portable water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_water_purification

    Portable water purification devices are self-contained, easily transported units used to purify water from untreated sources (such as rivers, lakes, and wells) for drinking purposes. Their main function is to eliminate pathogens, and often also of suspended solids and some unpalatable or toxic compounds. These units provide an autonomous supply ...

  5. Biofilter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilter

    A biofilter is a bed of media on which microorganisms attach and grow to form a biological layer called biofilm. Biofiltration is thus usually referred to as a fixed–film process. Generally, the biofilm is formed by a community of different microorganisms (bacteria, fungi, yeast, etc.), macro-organisms (protozoa, worms, insect's larvae, etc ...

  6. Microfiltration - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Microfiltration

    Thorough water rinsing of the membrane modules, pipelines, pumps and other unit connections should be carried out until the end water appears clean. Microfiltration modules are typically set to operate at pressures of 100 to 400 kPa. [23] Such pressures allow removal of materials such as sand, slits and clays, and also bacteria and protozoa.

  7. Reverse osmosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_osmosis

    Reverse osmosis (RO) is a water purification process that uses a semi-permeable membrane to separate water molecules from other substances. RO applies pressure to overcome osmotic pressure that favors even distributions. RO can remove dissolved or suspended chemical species as well as biological substances (principally bacteria), and is used in ...
