Not all people have access to safe drinking water. According to a 2017
report by the United Nations (UN) World Health Organization (WHO), 2.1
billion people lack access to a safe and reliable drinking water supply at
home. Eighty-eight percent of the four billion annual cases of diarrhea
reported worldwide have been attributed to a lack of sanitary drinking
water. Each year approximately 525,000 children under age ve die from
diarrhea, the second leading cause of death, and 1.7 million are sickened
by diarrheal diseases caused by unsafe water, coupled with inadequate
sanitation and hygiene.
Process
Most water used in industrialized countries is treated at water treatment
plants. Although the methods those plants use in pretreatment depend
on their size and the severity of the contamination, those practices have
been standardized to ensure general compliance with national and
international regulations. The majority of water is puri ed after it has been
pumped from its natural source or directed via pipelines into holding
tanks. After the water has been transported to a central location, the
process of puri cation begins.
