  2. Canine hydrotherapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Canine_hydrotherapy

    A dog's muscles benefit from the warming effects of the heated water. Most pools have a ramp for entry and exit, and some have harnesses to maintain the dog in position in the water. There may be a manual or electric hoist for lifting dogs in and out of the water. Water is chlorinated or treated with an alternative

  3. Portable water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_water_purification

    All bacterial pathogens are quickly killed above 60 °C (140 °F), therefore, although boiling is not necessary to make the water safe to drink, the time taken to heat the water to boiling is usually sufficient to reduce bacterial concentrations to safe levels. [10] Encysted protozoan pathogens may require higher temperatures to remove any risk ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waterskin

    Most waterskins could hold between 18 and 27.5 L (5 and 7 US gallons; 4 and 6 imperial gallons) of water. [1] The disadvantage of waterskins is that people who have fetched water in the skin bottle and who have drunk water from the same have complained of the water taking on the bad taste of the goatskin. [4]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Vacuum_evaporation

    Vacuum Sugar Apparatus at The Great Exhibition, 1851. Vacuum evaporation is the process of causing the pressure in a liquid-filled container to be reduced below the vapor pressure of the liquid, causing the liquid to evaporate at a lower temperature than normal.

    Solar water disinfection (SODIS) application in Indonesia using clear polyethylene terephthalate (PET) plastic beverage bottles. Solar water disinfection, in short SODIS, is a type of portable water purification that uses solar energy to make biologically-contaminated (e.g. bacteria, viruses, protozoa and worms) water safe to drink.

  7. Industrial water treatment - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Industrial_water_treatment

    Two of the main processes of industrial water treatment are boiler water treatment and cooling water treatment. A large amount of proper water treatment can lead to the reaction of solids and bacteria within pipe work and boiler housing. Steam boilers can suffer from scale or corrosion when left untreated. Scale deposits can lead to weak and ...

  8. Hyperion sewage treatment plant - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hyperion_sewage_treatment...

    A majority of the water can be reclaimed, and water that is not clean enough goes to the ocean. The West Basin Municipal Water District purchases approximately 37,600 acre-feet (46.4 billion liters), or roughly 9 percent, of Hyperion's secondary effluent for treatment at the Edward C. Little Water Recycling Facility. [citation needed]

  9. Purified water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Purified_water

    Double-distilled water (abbreviated "ddH 2 O", "Bidest. water" or "DDW") is prepared by slow boiling the uncontaminated condensed water vapor from a prior slow boiling. Historically, it was the de facto standard for highly purified laboratory water for biochemistry and used in laboratory trace analysis until combination purification methods of ...
