Climate change impact on drinking water

Category: Water | Tags: #  
Water is one of the most essential macronutrient. It helps you maintain body functions such as regulating body temperature, protects body organs and tissues, helps excrete the waste in our body, helps in digestion, solvent of many compounds, helps in nutrient absorption..etc.
Human life is impossible without the water so you should take care about the amount and the quality of water you intake.

In many areas, increased water temperatures will cause eutrophication and excess algae growth, which will reduce drinking water quality. 

We can tackle this problem only by promoting awareness that we can all be part of the solution in our own way.
Are you drinking enough water?

Drink at least 8 glasses daily or 1 cup for every 9kg of body weight

Ensure the Safety of Your Drinking Water
Clean drinking water is one of the most important resources in the world. It is essential to test for a number of parameters in order to keep the public safe as well as preventing damage to treatment processes and the environment.
Tools to keep quality of our [number one] priority
keep your water clear, clean, and safe
Measuring the pH of water that is low in minerals can be difficult. The lower the mineral content the less conductive the water will be. Low conductivity water presents a challenge since the pH meter is an electrochemical system that relies on the solution being measured to be conductive.
HI99192 is a portable, lightweight pH meter that is supplied with a FC2153 pH electrode designed specifically for measuring the pH of potable water.
The pair are ideal for on-site spot checks of drinking water.

Measuring Dissolved Oxygen with Optical Technology

HI98198

Optical Dissolved Oxygen Meter

The HI98198 Optical Dissolved Oxygen Meter makes measuring the concentration of dissolved oxygen hassle-free. Optical DO technology doesn’t require a minimum flow rate, so there is less drift in your readings. Perfect for the field or for the laboratory, the Quick Connect probe requires no membranes, no filling solution, and no warm-up time so you can measure without hesitation. Your meter comes complete in a rugged, custom carrying case for easy transportation.

Water Clarity

HI98703-02

Turbidity Portable Meter

Turbidity is an optical measurement that indicates the presence of suspended particles. It’s measured by shining light through a sample, and quantifying the suspended particle concentration. The more particles that are in a solution, the higher the turbidity. Drinking water and municipal wastewater plants often remove turbidity with a combination of sand filtration, settling tanks, and clarifiers.

HI90060x

Photometric Electrodes

For many titrations, a potentiometric determination of the equivalence point is simply not possible. In these cases, the use of a photometric probe for the optical determination of an endpoint during volumetric analysis is preferred.

Hanna Instruments introduces HI90060x Series for when a color change is still the best solution.

  • 4 different wavelengths (@525nm, @625nm, @590nm, @470 nm)
  • Less maintenance
  • Ideal for colorimetric reactions
