Water Treatment Bucket Systems

Hello Transcendian,Dt;06/03/2009

Bascically, water treatment means , one has to decide 1]whether raw water treatment,for which standard technologies are available ,by which, based on technical requirement/end use parameters ,one can desgn and advise.2]whether waste water treatment for safe discharge/suitability to specific end use,or total grade recycling[zero discharge]. Any effluent treatment system will have ,1]primary treatment[removal of insoluble organics2]secondary treatment[digestion of soluble organics by bacteria and toxicity removal,reduction of BOD/CO D values.-intermediate filters like Sand filter.activated carbon filter],iron removal filter,micron,ultra filters etc.3]The 3rd step being dissolved [ingargonic/semi organics]solids removal by membrane/evaporation/electro dialysis methods.

This needs for professiuonal expert assessment,which will perhaps suggest on end results requirements and cost incurrencies.What I convey is a simple generalization ,as low cost water treatment is not a clear term.If your requirements are specific I can help your cause.It will be my pleasure to have your feed back.

Although it specifcally addresses Arsenic, the general concept is interesting for a home supply system

The most common "bucket filters" I know about are the British Berkfield counter top systems. They use a porus ceramic with sliver to purify microbiologicaly unsafe water. You can see one of many vendors of this type of system here; http://www.doultonfilters.com/gravity.html

If that is what you are looking for, you can probably do a search using Berkfield Filter and your country's name. That should turn up local vendors of the equipment for you.

Have FUN!

Contact Them they will help you set up a production facility....

You might be talking about the Life Straw. I have pledged 10% of my online store profits to the purchase of these. Rotary is collecting the money in the US. There is also a larger version for a family to use rather than an individual.

Pictures of this device are at the top of every page in my store EXCEPT the entry page. There I have placed a welcome message instead.

I think this is a worthy cause. I hope this helps.
