As A Water Treatment Operator.. This Is Some Scary Shit, Or Is It?

Here we go. Have you ever asked yourself, why chloramine instead of chlorine... That is the million dollar question. The reason is because of excess disinfection byproducts (yes that cause cancer). Yes I am saying our water can cause cancer. look up


Dichloroacetic acid
Bromodichloromethane
Bromoform
Dibromochloromethane
Dibromoacetic acid

These are all disinfection byproducts.

Wells are great.
Low (or complete absence of) bacteria and viruses like cryptosporidium and giardia.
But rich in minerals.
It's becoming harder and harder to get water rights.







Bro, I am a water treatment operator and vicariously know all about chlorine and its benefits.



I know that it is is mixed with water and becomes hypochlorous acid.
That has better disinfectant properties while the pH is lower and the temperature being higher..
BUT can make trihalomethanes (THM) when it comes in contact with organic solids.

One way around that is by adding ammonia to create chloromines which DO NOT create THM.. But do not disinfect as well.

There is Ozone.. But it's costly to generate.

There's boiling, but it is not viable for large scale water municipalities.

There's iodine. But that's really only used as emergency.
(It leaves a fishy taste)

There's bromine, but it's very difficult to handle safely.

Some countries are trying out sound waves to disinfect.. But it is in its baby steps and is very costly.

ALL IN ALL

That video was shocking and I had to share it.

Chlorine is the main way municipal water treatment plants disinfect raw water.

NOTE: the lack of chlorine COULD be from killing the bacteria on his hand..

I'll try this and post my results here.

As someone who made a C in college chemistry I have a question.

Could it be that rather than absorbing into the guys skin that the chlorine (a very volatile substance) bound with chemicals on the guys skin?

That's what I was thinking. Or that the chlorine killed bacteria, oils and germs on his hand and so there was less free chlorine and more oxidized chlorine. Bleach is also another form of chlorine and you can use it to make water potable.

I see the retards are once again whining about chlorine

What's your alternative ?....just send nasty germ ladden water to homes?

well as a treatment operator for 30 years i cn tell you chlorination is the only way otherwise you get pathogens an amoebas an othther shit blieve me there is no other way.

False. All of it. Natural fluoride is calcium fluoride NOT the sodium fluoride they put in our water. Also it is NOT fluorine gas. It's a white powder they get in giant bags. Poisonous. You are a shill OR terribly misinformed.

I work at the Greenville utilities water treatment plant.

it is flourine gas

you also should study the elements and how it works.
calcium flouride is flouride. sodium flouride is flouride.

flouride is flouride.

there is nothing unnatural about it. it is the same flouride.


we dont use sodium or calcium flouride.

we use flourine GAS.
Chlorine
and our state of the art ozonia




on another note we use many methods of sterilization which makes it harder for bacteria to adapt.

hmm. for an expert..i have to question you.

flourine gas you say?

how about fluorine. it's spelled fluorine.

as far as fluorine goes, it is a poor germicide. Chlorine gas is much more effective. The fluorine is supposedly to stop tooth decay...lol. fkn joke of the century.

it's neural deadening substance. look it up. get educated.

I've been on well water for 9 years, can't stand municipal tap water. Although I'm not sure how much healthier it is being that I live <10 miles from a nuke plant.

First off Flouride should never be added to any water. Fuck that.

Secondly, I am all for chlorine as water treatment for large municipalities. Do not drink the water straight from the tap, use reverse osmosis. You can rest assured the chlorine has taken care of any bacteria trying to proliferate inside the water pipes and that the reverse osmosis removes the chlorine right before you chose to ingest it.

Lastly, install water filters on your shower heads to remove as much chlorine from the water as possible.

All of this is to have the reassurance that your water is not contaminated with bacteria while it exits the faucet. Why chance it with some other methods? When you need to deliever water to 1+ million people there is no better way to treat water than with chlorine.


Just be sure to REMOVE it before you use it. Simple.

I’m very thankful I use well water. It has to be some of the best water I have ever had.
