mechanism of the water purifier and its residue

usually a home water purifier has several filters which remove water contaminants and impurities, store the treated water in a tank, and then pump it up to us when needed so that it can be used. what is not said is the large amount of water that is discharged into the sewage through the outlet of this device which is hidden from the consumer. for Using disposable water and Environmental preservation

in fact,with each glass of this treated water,one or two glasses are poured into the sewage through a pipe and the outlet of the device.the installer of the home water purifier usually connects this pipe to the sewer network by drilling a sewer pipe under the sink and the consumer never notices the outflow of this amount of water. in fact we often think that this device with its filters absorbs only solid and small solutes, then all the water is extracted in a purified form mistakenly,but this is not the case.this device pours 1to2 liters of water into the sewage for every 1 liter of treated water.

The water waste film

As you’ll see in the movie, we can use the waste water coming out of the house water purifier in a garden. Instead of entering the sewage, it can water the trees. Or in places with no access to purified water, we can put it in a rain barrel so to be used for dish and/or handwashing. Another way to exploit this type of water is to use it in washing cars or different surfaces of the house like the kitchen,the ceramic surfaces or the bathroom.

Important note on watering plants:

Pay attention that the residual water from household water filtration (Reverse Osmosis systems) are acidic and iit’s not a good idea to use it directly for watering plants. It may damages them.

But you can use it for plants that are salt tolerant or mix it with rainwater to balance its PH and then use it for watering plants.
