Q1. What are the various types of water purification methods?

The most commonly used water purification methods used in Kenyan homes, schools, hospitals, hotels and offices are:

  • Ultraviolet water sterilizer

- This technology disinfects water instantly by introducing high intensity ultraviolet light to flowing water in a closed chamber that has the effect of destroying all microorganisms such as viruses, bacteria, and protozoa.

- UV sterilizers are commonly used as the last stage of a larger water purification system before final consumption, and only targets microorganisms but not other impurities in water

  • Reverse Osmosis purifier

- This technology disinfects water by eliminating impurities on a molecular level by passing dirty water through a semipermeable membrane that selectively permits only water to pass through. Dissolved salts, micro-organisms, chlorine, heavy metals and other impurities that are impossible to remove by normal filtration methods are eliminated by reverse osmosis.

- Reverse osmosis purifiers are most popularly used where salty water exists, and where water purification levels are extremely high. However, they are used in conjunction with general filtration systems that are installed in preceding stages to remove large sized impurities like soil in water.

  • Ultrafiltration and microfiltration purifiers

- This purification technology removes particles from water by separating them using filters with tiny pores. Only suspended solids and certain microorganisms such as bacteria bigger than 1 micron are eliminated. Dissolved salts, heavy metals, toxins and extremely small viruses cannot be eliminated by this method.

- Ultra-filtration and microfiltration purifiers are mostly used where the water-quality is not very poor and the final user requirements are not so high on purity.

Q2. Does borehole water need purification?

Yes, borehole water should be subjected to the most appropriate water purification method after submitting a sample for laboratory testing. Salty borehole water is purified through a reverse osmosis purifier, in conjunction with ultra violet (UV) sterilizer, ultrafiltration and/or microfiltration.

Q3. How do you select the correct water purification method for a home, a school, an office, a hospital or a hotel?

To select the correct water purification technology, a water sample will have to be submitted to a laboratory for a water quality analysis before an appropriate method is selected.

Q4. What are the advantages of replacing purified water bottles with bottleless dispenser water purifiers in offices and workplaces?

 The advantages of bottleless dispensers that can purify water over buying bottled water is as follows:

  • Water is purified on demand thereby eliminating contamination during transit and handling. Unlike bottled water that has an expiry date, bottled water doesn’t expire
  • Cheaper than bottled water as transportation and factory processing costs such as packaging are eliminated
  • Elimination of shortages due to procurement and inventory management deficiencies
  • Environmentally friendly by eliminating plastic bottle pollution
  • Eliminates safety risks from handling bulky water bottles

Q5. Which water purification method is used to remove salt (desalinate) in salty water?
Reverse Osmosis and ion exchange are the technologies used to eliminate salt from water. Reverse osmosis is a physical method used to remove salts from water by used a semipermeable membrane while ion exchange is a physicochemical process where certain salts are eliminated by replacing them by other ions when water contacts certain resins. - Reverse osmosis is preferred over ion exchange since it is not chemical based, and eliminates all salts as opposed to the selective nature of ion exchange purifiers. -Get in contact with Clean Basket Technologies(CBT) today for your water purification solutions in Kenya.
