I worked briefly in a water treatment plant in the late 90s writing Risk Assessment/ Ruler Assessments and Work Element Sheets for certain parts of the treatment process.
Since then I have NEVER drank water from a tap - what I have seen can never be unseen.
If a random guy asked you to drink poop and pee and toilet water that had been ‘properly’ filtered, would you ?
I have been buying bottled water from Costco for drinking since then, so cheap £3.70 for 42 bottles.
PS. It’s not a secret I stumbled across, it’s common knowledge that the industry is proud of.
Here is a random snippet from the industry.
Using high tech filtration in waste water treatment solid particles are entirely removed from the water. ( NICE )
This can be from ground water, surface water or even pre-treated household wastewater. ( LOVERLY )
These processes in water treatment have a clear objective: to provide the correct quality of water for the specific application, Industrial and household.’ (AH, THATS OK THEN )
