Water treatment plants to treat the drinking water involves the removal of contaminants from raw water to produce water that is pure enough for human consumption without any short term or long-term risk of any adverse health effect. Substances that are removed during the process of drinking water treatment include suspended solids, bacteria, algae, viruses, fungi and minerals such as iron and manganese. The processes involved in removing the contaminants include physical processes such as settling and filtration, chemical processes such as disinfection and coagulation and biological processes such as slow sand filtration. Measures taken to ensure water quality not only relate to the treatment of the water, but to its conveyance and distribution after treatment. It is therefore common practice to keep residual disinfectants in the treated water to kill bacteriological contamination during distribution. World Health Organization (WHO) guidelines as well as local standards should be implemented to meet the drinking water quality. Here at BCPL, we provide the better solution and low-cost water treatment to the society.
