Water Treatment Exeter is the process of improving the quality of water to make it cleaner for human use. Water treatment processes include both physical and chemical techniques. They are capable of removing or destroying biological pollutants (such as bacteria or viruses), suspended solids, and dissolved chemicals. They can be divided into industrial, domestic, and environmental divisions.

Water Treatment Exeter may also be referred to as potable water treatment, which is the process of making unpotable water (such as groundwater) suitable for drinking by applying a combination of filtration and disinfection methods such as chlorination or UV radiation.

The term “purification” is also used to describe the process of making water pure enough to be consumed or used in a specific way. For example, household water purification is the process of making contaminated water drinkable by using filtration, disinfection and removing chemicals. The term purification may also refer to removing all organic compounds from water, but this usage is rare; in some jurisdictions, it refers only to removal of microorganisms, while in others it refers to both microorganisms and any organic compounds.

Water is an essential element of life. It allows us to grow crops, boil food and even drink to stay alive. However, water can also be a source of illness and disease especially if it is contaminated. In fact, inadequate access to safe drinking water is one of the biggest risks to health in the developing world.

Treating contaminated water for public consumption is critical to ensuring that people are not exposed to harmful bacteria and viruses. One way to do this is by using chlorine dioxide for water treatment.

Chlorine dioxide is the second form of chlorine used for water treatment after sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl). This chemical has been widely used in Europe since the mid-1800s and has only gained popularity in North America within the last few decades.

Though chlorine dioxide (ClO2) and sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) are similar because they both contain chlorine, they have very different uses and applications. Chlorine dioxide has several advantages over NaOCl when it comes to treating water because it is more efficient, more powerful and less harmful to humans; so let’s look at how each of these chemicals works and what makes chlorine dioxide suitable for treating water.
