Tips For Municipal Water Treatment In Kenya

By Anthony Patterson


Large-scale aquatic treatment is mandatory to make it safe for different end-use. Most end-use include recreation, drinking, irrigation and other economic activities. Most municipalities have spent a lot of money in this kind of process and have registered success over time. There are many activities that require to be considered to achieve a similar success rate. Below are guidelines for municipal water treatment in Kenya to take into consideration.

Start by acquainting with aspects that affect marine quality. All the aspects that affect aquatic quality are based on environmental factors and human activities. Environmental aspects include sedimentation, runoffs, and soil erosion. On the other hand, human activities that affect marine quality comprises of industrial waste, commercial cleaning activities, household cleaning, and littering and air pollution.

Establish the coagulation and flocculation process. This is the first steps in treating aquatic that is used commercially. Chemicals that have positive charges are added in the water to neutralize the negative charges that the dissolved particles have. The particles join together to form larger particles that are known as flocs. They are removed through filtration or settling procedure.

Consider the sedimentation process. This procedure follows the flocculation process. In this process, the aquatic is passed on a large basin at a slow speed to allow the flocs to move to the bottom of the basin. The flocs are known as sludge and are removed using filtration process. They can be removed manually when the water has been drained from the basin.

Acknowledge how the filtration process is handled. Filtration is done after the sedimentation procedure is completed. In this process, the aquatic is passed through a filter which captures every solid component that is mixed in it. This includes gravel, sand and crushed anthracite as well. This process is essential to make disinfection effective enough. The filters are cleaned through a back washing procedure to remove the particles that have gathered on their surface.

Check the disinfection procedure. Different means are used in this process based on the marine quality. However, chlorine is widely used since it is very useful compared with the rest chemicals. Water from lakes, rivers, dams and other surface marine bodies should be treated using intensive measures since they have a lot of impurities. A similar process should be considered with borehole water.

Provide a consumer confidence report. Municipal aquatic suppliers are expected to provide an annual report related to every aspect that is associated with the water that they supply. It should provide information regarding the aquatic source, management process and various methods that consumers can use to protect themselves from contamination. Such reports increase the rate of confidence of the consumers to their municipality and can comfortably file complaints and expect quick responses.

Instill the consumers on personal aquatic cure processes. The fact that municipal treatment of H2O makes is quite suitable does not guarantee that it is completely safe for usage. Consumers should make their input to be entirely sure about the safety of the marine that they use. They should adopt measures such as regular boiling, filtering, softening and control of PH. Special measures can be considered for people with low immunity and while improving the marine taste.
