Have you ever filled a glass of water, looked at it, and thought, “This looks perfectly clean”? Most dangerous things in drinking water are actually invisible. Not mud. Not dirt. Not the things you can see floating around.<\/p>\n

We’re talking about bacteria, viruses, and microorganisms that can quietly enter your body without changing the colour, taste, or smell of water. This is exactly why disinfection of water is one of the most important steps in making water safe to drink. What’s interesting is that many people believe filtration alone is enough. But filtration and disinfection are two different things. A filter may remove dust, sediments, and certain impurities, but if harmful microorganisms survive, the water can still be unsafe. That’s where disinfection comes in.<\/p>\n

In this blog, we will look at how disinfection of drinking water works, the different methods used around the world, and the chemicals involved.<\/p>\n
