Swimming pool treatment chemicals are used in water treatment processes to eliminate microorganisms of all life stages and sizes. They also keep the water clean and balance the pH level of the water. A few of the chemicals are used to balance pH levels and offer shock treatment, among others. Swimming pool treatment chemicals are typically manufactured in liquid and powder forms as well as in concentrates and ready-to-use formulations. The most commonly employed chemicals in the pool water treatment process include sanitizers, balancers, shocks, and algaecides. A pool's filter system does the work to keeping the water clean, but it takes chemistry to do the fine-tuning. It's important to carefully manipulate the chemical balance in pools for several reasons. One reason is that pathogens, such as bacteria, thrive in water. A pool filled with untreated water would be a perfect place for disease-carrying microorganisms to move from one person to another. Also, water with the wrong...

While fracking has produced cheap natural gas in the US, it has also increased competition for water, which is in short supply across many parts of the country. The process — injecting a high-pressure mix of water, sand and chemicals into rock formations to release natural gas — uses vast amounts of it. A single well can use between 65,000 gallons and 13 million gallons of freshwater. This has led to new regulations that focus on water conservation as well as an increased focus on treating and recycling fracking wastewater. Click Here to Know What are the New Technologies About half of the freshwater used in fracking is recovered as “flowback,” or water that flows back to the surface along with natural gas. The process also yields produced water, which contains massive amounts of brine. This wastewater mixture is difficult and expensive to treat, which is why it is typically injected deep underground. Regulations are limiting deep well injection of produced water, currently very common...

Wastewater treatment equipment is used to treat, remediate, and process effluent wastewater. By definition, wastewater carries a mixture of dissolved or suspended solids from residences, agriculture, and industries. Some wastewater is polluted, meaning that industrial wastes, chemicals, toxins, or other objectionable materials are present in sufficient quantities to cause a measurable degradation of water quality. Often, wastewater treatment equipment is used at sewage treatment plants, facilities that use a series of tanks, screens, filters, and other processes to remove dissolved and suspended solids from wastewater. Wastewater treatment equipment may also be used commercially, typically in conjunction with aboveground or sub-surface systems such sewers, disposal wells, and waste ponds.

A biocide is a chemical treatment that is formulated to effectively control microbial growth. Problems caused by un-controlled microbial growth can range from health hazards, the breakdown of chemicals, the development of biofilms , heat transfer losses, restriction of flow and under deposit corrosion. (source : bvwater) Water treatment biocides have been gaining increasing importance across the globe owing to their wide range of applications, ranging from swimming pools and municipality water treatment to water treatment in various industries, such as oil & gas, power plants, mining, and pulp and paper. Uncontrolled microbial growth can lead to several complications, such as breakdown of chemicals, health hazards, heat transfer losses, development of biofilms, restriction of flow, and under-deposit corrosion.

Water treatment systems are an important source to safeguard human lives against diseases caused as a result of the consumption of contaminated water. Rapid industrialization has led to unsupervised dumping of harmful chemicals into the water bodies and has rendered it polluted and unfit for use. Thus, water purification and water treatment systems become a necessity to avoid cholera, diarrhea and other fatal diseases. Download Sample PDF Copy The water treatment systems market is anticipated to grow in the forecast period owing to driving factors such as growing urban population, rising health awareness and increased industrial waste discharge in water bodies. Moreover, government regulations against water pollution coupled with affordable water treatment units further propel the water treatment systems market growth. However, the growing popularity and consumption of bottled water is a major restraining factor for this market. The rising individual awareness regarding safe water cons...
