  2. Dealkalization of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Dealkalization_of_water

    Chloride cycle dealkalizers operate similar to sodium cycle cation water softeners. Like water softeners, dealkalizers contain ion-exchange resins that are regenerated with a concentrated salt solution - NaCl. In the case of a water softener, the cation exchange resin is exchanging sodium (the Na + ion of NaCl) for hardness minerals such as ...

  3. Water softening - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_softening

    A study found the mean concentration of sodium in softened water to be 278 mg/L. [23] In 2 liters of water—the amount of drinking water typically suggested for an average adult, this constitutes about 22% of the recommended sodium intake by the US CDC and may make a difference to those who need to significantly limit their sodium consumption.

  5. Cold water extraction - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cold_water_extraction

    The cold water extraction process is fairly simple not only due to the simplicity of the method but also because the items needed are minimal and can all be found in a common household. The items used in the process are usually 2 drinking glasses (or any other container), a screen (used to filter) and an item capable of crushing the tablets ...

  6. Sodium sesquicarbonate - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sodium_sesquicarbonate

    In the presence of oxygen and water, even the small amount of moisture in the atmosphere, the cuprous chloride forms copper(II) chloride and hydrochloric acid, the latter of which dissolves the metal and forms more cuprous chloride in a self-sustaining reaction that leads to the entire destruction of the object. Treatment with sodium ...

  7. Water purification - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_purification

    Many household water filters and fish tanks use activated carbon filters to purify water. Household filters for drinking water sometimes contain silver as metallic silver nanoparticle . If water is held in the carbon block for longer periods, microorganisms can grow inside which results in fouling and contamination.

  8. Halazone - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halazone

    Halazone tablets have been used to disinfect water for drinking, especially where treated tap water is not available. A typical dosage is 4 mg/L. [5] [6] Halazone tablets were commonly used during World War II by U.S. soldiers for portable water purification, even being included in accessory packs for C-rations until 1945.

  9. Reverse osmosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Reverse_osmosis

    Around the world, household drinking water purification systems, including an RO step, are commonly used for improving water for drinking and cooking. Such systems typically include these steps: a sediment filter to trap particles, including rust and calcium carbonate; a second sediment filter with smaller pores
