Purity of NEWater

By comparing with different types of water, we will get a conclusion on how pure is the water from NEWater.

Distilled water

During the process of distillation, the water is boiled, followed by collecting of steam. After that, it is condensed. Through this process, many harmful bacteria and substances will be removed. However, the natural minerals in the water will not be there anymore.

Mineral water

On the other hand, mineral water contains dissolved minerals that are either naturally or artificially prepared. This water has been filtered, so there will no be any harmful substances in the water.


NEWater

In the NEWater process, water has already gone through microfiltration and reverse osmosis before the process of UV disinfection. The UV light will be absorbed by the bacteria and viruses, rearranging the genetic material. Thus, the bacteria and viruses can no longer reproduce, can be considered as dead.

In reverse osmosis, bacteria and viruses with smaller particles than water particles will still be able to pass through. Moreover, the mineral will also be removed from water. However, wit UV distillation, even those small viruses can be removed.

This should be the last part on introduction of NEWater. I will put up my part later :D
