Water Distillers, Effective Uranium and Radiation Water Contamination Treatment

April 13, 2011 - PRLog -- With the recent developments in Japans nuclear crisis, people from all over the world are starting to take precautions, and or find information about how to protect them if such a disaster were to happen in their communities. People are buying up all the supplies of personal radiation detectors, potassium iodide pills, and other devices to help protect them from radiation exposure. One of the least publicized issues about the radioactive contaminates be emitted into the environment is what effects it will have on water supplies. We are all concerned about our drinking water being contaminated with radioactive materials, but we often do not realize how much water is used in manufacturing and agricultural process. For the time being we will focus on effective uranium and radioactive water contamination treatment for uses as drinking water.

There are several water filtration products that can dramatically reduce uranium and other radionucleides for contaminated water supplies. Information from government officials in Nova Scotia http://www.gov.ns.ca/nse/water/uraniumremovaldistill.asp states “Water Distillation can remove 100 per cent of the uranium in drinking water.” A very strong statement from the government but should highlight the effectiveness of water distillation as a uranium and radiation treatment method. Although boiling water seems to be an effective solution, the University of Nebraska study http://elkhorn.unl.edu/epublic/pages/publicationD.jsp?pub... states that boiling water is good for removing biological contaminates it is not effective in removing inorganic materials such as in this case radioactive isotopes. Why does a water distiller system http://www.freshwatersystems.com/c-166-water-distillers.aspx effectively remove uranium? It is because of how the water changes states of matter from a liquid to a vapor, in essence leaving behind the uranium in the boiling water which then is drained away.
