DRINKING WATER AND MINERAL WATER

system drinking water is now of paramount importance to know what this means indispensable resource for human development and everything involved in the health of every living being, which is why Basically we wanted to reflect the essential process that leads to becoming raw water into drinking water.
This time it was because of the technical visit we could do in the General San Martin Water Treatment Plant Water and Sanitation Argentinos (Aysa). This plant was opened in 1913 and its water treatment system is basically universal throughout the process that takes place in an area of \u200b\u200b28.5 hectares with an output of 3,160,000 m3 per day for a population served of about 6,000,000 inhabitants.
The capture the raw water of the river takes place in the Tower No. 3 which has an octagonal shape, protected by bars and 1200 meters from the coast where one of the largest watersheds in the world surface water has organic matter, turbidity and micro particles that will be entered into the plant through pipes of 5.40 meters in diameter, which is received by 13 pumping system that just raise the water 10 feet above the chamber their entry to the plant tour performed by gravity.
is necessary to add that the clay contains the river is in colloidal state with negative charge l or the next step is the coagulation with the addition of several coagulants such as ferric chloride, sulfate poly aluminum or aluminum with a positive charge, the destabilized and these clots called flocs and adding a polyelectrolyte increases the size of these flocs, producing its sedimentation so it will be much easier to decant, to this process is called flocculation .
From that moment begins settling in the pools decanter having a size of 100 meters long and 30 meters wide, in which the feed water timer can be mixed with the precipitation of flocs in the process eliminated 90% of clay and 95% of the bacteria that are controlled by or quality control laboratory plant in each sector.
The next step will be the filtration, which filters 130 will be responsible for retaining the particles that may have escaped from the slop in pools with beds of sand that are responsible for retaining these particles then passing turbidity special nozzles. Then will take place
water disinfection by the addition of a dose of chlorine to the reserves in order to remove microorganisms or organic matter that may have come this far and then be the turn of the alcanización , or the dosage of lime to reduce acidity caused by the addition of the coagulant, which is controlled by the laboratories of the plant. Finally
and corrected their pH, all the water found in the pool and has the characteristics of drinking water with the strict conditions of consumption, so that made the distribution through pipes underground rivers that are up to 4.5 meters in diameter that carry water by gravity to lift stations 15 so that the 3,160,000 m3 per day of potable water are sent by the city to finally be consumed in the homes.
