POLLUTION IN THE ENVIRONMENT

Pollutants from industrial sources often emerge from the fallout  from factories, and  leakage from pipelines and underground storage tanks. Polluted water flows from mines where the water has leached through mineral-rich rocks or has been contaminated by the chemicals used in processing iron ore. Cities and other residential communities contribute mostly sewage, with traces of household chemicals mixed in. Sometimes industries discharge pollutants into city sewers, increasing the variety of pollutants in municipal areas.

The oceans, vast as they are, are not invulnerable to pollution. Pollutants reach the sea from adjacent shorelines, from ships, and from offshore oil platforms.

POLLUTION IN OUR DRINKING WATER

The major water pollutants are chemical, biological, and physical materials that degrade water quality, resulting in an increased concern over the safety of drinking water. This has led to an explosive worldwide growth in the sale of bottled water and filtering devices attached to faucets, meant to further treat filtered drinking water. However, of over 2,000 filters sold to the public, only a handful actually remove all of the parasites, viruses, bacteria, pesticides and heavy metals resident in tap water.
Recently the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), the Center for Disease Control (CDC) and other environmental groups commented on the shocking and dangerous state of public water supplies.

Drinking ordinary tap water can be potentially fatal to people with a weakened immune system. LINK Children, expectant mothers and the elderly are in greatest risk. Most water systems are not designed to remove protozoa or volatile organic chemicals (VOC) such as fluoride. One of the protozoa most water systems are incapable of removing is cryptosporidium parvum. This is the same parasite that killed 104 people and made 400,000 ill in Milwaukee.

The consensus of most medical experts is that the water supply is the most critical factor to human health. The Natural Resources Defense Council estimates that in the US alone more than 900,000 become ill each year from water borne disease and as many as 900 will die. International Controllers estimated that in the near future, more than 120 million US households regularly purchase bottled water at an average cost of $500 to $1500  a year. This number is currently on the rise. In addition, there is also an increasing awareness that bottled water itself may be no safer than municipally treated water.

Water Wizard uses technology that extracts pure drinking water from the air. The machine pulls air through an electrostatic filter, which removes 93% of all airborne particles. As the machine collects the water, it drops into a collection tray and immediately passes into an Ultraviolet (UV) light, where the water stays in contact with the UV for approximately 30 minutes, killing 99.9% of all germs and bacteria in the water. The water is then pumped through a sediment screen into the 24 volt water pump and back through two (2) solid carbon block 1 micron water filters, which removes 99.9% of any volatile organic chemicals (VOC's) that may be in the water. The water then passes through a half-calcite, half-GAC mineral additive, where it is then pumped into a reservoir tank. The water is then recycled every hour through the UV and back into the reservoir tank. The water is then chilled or heated and dispensed to consumers.
