Top 10 Water Purifying Methods in the Forest and Rural Areas

Natural Water Filtration Systems. These easy water purifying methods show the importance of water purification and how to purify water in the forest and rural areas. Also, you’ll learn how to purify water at home using a water filtration system for well water really simple without using chemicals, and water purification systems for camping. #waterfilter
00:00 Water treatment solutions when you are in the forest, camping or in rural areas.
00:31 Solar Disinfection Purification of Water Project
SODIS (methods of purification of water project) is a water purification technique that harnesses the sun’s UV rays. By filling up a plastic bottle with dirty water and leaving it in direct sunlight for a day (or under cloudy skies for 2 days), destroys 99.9% of bacteria and pathogens. It does not eliminate chemical, mineral or radiological waste
01:01 How to Purify Water by Boiling | Boiling Disinfection
To eliminate the bacteria, boil from 15 to 30 minutes. The disadvantage is the concentration loss of dissolved minerals, due to the evaporation of water.
01:18 How to Purify Water with Bleach
The fastest, most economical and effective method to eliminate the bacteria contained in water. 3 drops per liter are sufficient. After adding the chlorine, it is important to wait half an hour before drinking the water. Water from the aqueduct has chlorine already, so it can happen that adding more chlorine manifests itself in the flavor (making it very unpleasant); this does not represent health risks.
02:03 Clay Water filter
This natural water filtration system consists of preparing a clay mass and mix it with rice husks or pineapple peels until obtaining a homogeneous mixture. Then, model a shape of a water filter (such as a bucket) and then "cook it" in a traditional pottery oven between 700 and 1,000 degrees Celsius until the material hardens. At this temperature the crop residue decomposes and releases the carbon dioxide. In turn, this dioxide forms microscopic pores in the clay. These pores are "really tiny", so they serve to retain the bacteria, viruses, toxic contaminants and metals that water may have, while allowing only clean water to pass through.
03:10 Activated Carbon Water filter
This method is very efficient to eliminate chlorine excess, bad odor, unpleasant flavors and heavy solids in water, as well as to retain some organic pollutants, such as insecticides, pesticides and herbicides. The risk posed by these filters is that they can saturate and contaminate with microorganisms, therefore, it is necessary to change them every five months.
04:10 Slow Sand Drinking Water Filtration System
It is a filtering system that traps the larger particles suspended in the water, remaining in the different layers of sand that have different thickness in relation to each other. For this, place a first layer of sand in a container with tap outlet; add another of fine gravel on top of the first one and then a last one of larger gravel. The water is poured into the container and collected through the tap. The water will pass through all the layers that will retain dirt.
04:42 Filtration by cartridge
It is the last step of the water to achieve its physical polishing, the water passes through a device that contains paper, cardboard or filter cloth with the ability to retain any possible residue suspended in the water of an approximate size of up to 5 microns as in the purifying plants. 5 microns is equal to the pores of a coffee filter. When the cartridge becomes dirty due to excess suspended matter, just replace it by another one or wash and reuse if possible.
05:15 Xylem Filter Water Purification Method
A team of scientists has proven the effectiveness of pinewood in water filtration using its xylem, a lignified vegetable tissue conduction that transports fluids from one part of the vascular plants to another. The results published in the journal PLoS ONE, indicate that: "Using three different xylem filters, we obtained an almost total filtering of the bacteria, capturing 99.9% of them"
To make a homemade water filter, all you have to do is peel the bark of a pine branch and stick it in a tube, sealing the spaces between the twig and the tube with epoxy glue. Each twig filters 4 liters of water per day, enough for one person.
06:26 Water Distillation
Heat water to the boiling point and collect the water that condenses in the lid of the container. Contaminants, heavy metals and all minerals are left behind. Some harmful elements can easily pass into the gaseous state, such as certain organic chemicals. The process cannot eliminate all chemical substances.
07:10 Solar Oven Water Purification Process
Fill the black kettle with salty seawater in the morning, and then close the lid. As the temperature and pressure increase, the steam is forced down through a connecting tube and accumulates in the lid, which acts as a condenser transforming the steam into fresh water.
