Alexander Michael Where did you get that information? I’m not trying to sound rude but if that were true, pumping water from the ground would be just as bad. But that’s not the case. Calcium carbonate neutralizes acid. Calcium carbonate doesn’t come out of a scientist lab, it comes from natural sediments found in stone, fossils, limestone etc. this type of system works perfect for balancing the ph levels of the water. We have been using a two large concrete cistern system with essentially the same materials since 1993. Our public health inspector claims our water is cleaner than city water

I had a aquaculture business in Florida growing salt water LiveRock. Corals,pink coralline algae etc... each rock had over 500 species of life on it. We built reefs out of a100% calcium carbonate rock in the Atlantic Ocean & the Gulf of Mexico. We used a lot of charcoal in our filtration system of about 3,000 gallons. We use to recycle the charcoal by cooking it on cookie sheets in the oven at a preset heat and time. It was then sterile again for reuse. We hardly ever added new charcoal except over time from what spilled or turned to dust. We did this at least a dozen times and never replaced it with new. We kept extra charcoal only to replace very small amount lost charcoal from handling. It never went bad. Don’t remember the temperature or time length of heated oven. But I’m sure you can google it. Hope this may help. Great video, and love & compassion for human life. If everyone that watched this did something to make two other people’s life better, and those two did two more and so on..???? “What a Wonderful World it would be”. Right..??? just saying?

Distillation is the only way 100% to have pure water and you are Never Guessing. Your Gonna say, well true but that takes a lot of Power as in this example; 1200 watts for 24 hours is 21 Liters. So that is 28.8 KW @0 .14 = 4.04 CAD Since science is so full of holes nobody can solve the simplest problem. Example : 100 watts for 24 hours is 38 Liters and a total of 4.4 KW @0.14 = 0.61 CAD or A Wind Up Clock, A Hand Pump and a Sealed Container 0 watts for 24 hours is 23 liters costing you a slice of bread for Energy.

But one thing I really don’t like… (but toldally understand why it’s used and how difficult it would be with out it) is… PLASTIC… I hate the use of so much plastic.. Plastic barrels, pipe fittings, gaskets etc. I am trying to move away completely from using plastics to drinking water. As of right now I am Bottling my own drinking water from a local spring I know here in Northern California In only glass bottles and jugs no plastics. my personal favorite of use is vintage freshly Cleaned glass jugs and bottles that I ether found out on my adventures or was given. I use corks aswell no plastic tops or anything.

I've Seen dozens and dozens of diy water filter videos over the years. And this is probably the first one I've seen that recommended washing and cleaning the sand/gravel before placing in the filter. (Though, admittedly, many will just put the materials in a container of their choice and flush water through until it's clear anyways). I prefer this hands on assurance. Great vid!

A simple, effective and cheap way to treat water. I live in Spain away from mains water supply, so a solution like this will be essential in our summer months as we filter water from a borehole with high sulphur content. Thanks for the video and greetings from Aragon, Spain!

I remember back in 1993 when on duty in Cambodia we had a system like this built for a local that was working with us. Works slick. Used huge clay pots instead of plastic drums.

@Sheep dog .. You said exactly what I was thinking... Clay-->good. Plastic-->problem. Such big containers could be difficult in clay. Maybe stainless steel would be better. I attended a talk years ago with a Ph.D. in Biochemistry. She mentioned that (at that time) there were ca. 80,000 kinds of patented material coming from petroleum. 4,000 of them had been tested and found to produce carcinogenic substances. I do not trust plastic water containers at all.

yup. clay pots are better than plastic drums
@zrig1 3 жыл бұрын
@@Suthrngal We used clay pots because they were abundant and easy to manufacture in Cambodia in 1993. The pots also held quite a bit more water than these plastic drums. They were huge. Back then there was no push for the reduction in petroleum-based products like there s today. That in itself makes them superior would you not agree.
