RE: Filters?

Comment comment by VnutZ on 11 March 2008

Just to hypothesize ... what do you think about desalinization techniques? I wonder if the evaporative process would render just pure H20. Granted, it's not the best thing to drink straight but it could be processed with minerals if necessary. I wonder if that could remove dissolved meds.

It really is amazing to think there are enough meds in the water system to even be noticeable.

Desalination? I don't know for sure; I do have some friends I can ask--I used to be employed by a major water utility. My gut says it would be ok.. but this doesn't do anything to help the freshwater environment.

BUT..the small ppm, while not affecting human population, has huge effects on animal life. Try this one as well.
