Method Of Treatment Distillation uses heat and the removal of heat to purify water.
Distillation is a two-step process.
The process begins by boiling water in a chamber so as to produce steam. In the second step, the steam is moved to a second chamber where it is condensed back to liquid water and stored until needed. Depending on the particular brand of the unit, the water may also be repumped for use in plumbing systems. Target Contaminants Distillation is effective in disinfecting water and in the removal of inorganic chemicals from drinking water . Examples of inorganic minerals removable by distillation include arsenic, lead, and manganese.
