Hi Steemit family!

Meet Ekomuro H2O+

The water of the main rivers of the planet are polluted and drying product of its industrial use, we are before one of most devastating hydric crisis of all the times, never in so little time the human had wasted so many resources especially vital for the survival of all the species of the planet.

Today we will discover an artifact capable of recycling rainwater by means of a barrel, I present Ekomuro H2O+. Joining me to learn more about envelopes is a new way of storing rainwater.

The idea has been developed in Brazil in the city of Belo Horizonte, the intention of the development team is to solve families that do not have drinking water service and therefore represents a constant threat of viral diseases that could be deadly to humans. The idea is simple, it consists of a polyethylene filter to collect water and be used for human consumption. There are other devices that are similar but not optimal enough to produce drinking water.

The system works in phases, the first phase is the filtering of residues such as daughters and branches, the second phase is by decanted water passes through a limestone that normalizes the pH, another phase is the water when it comes into contact with chlorine eliminating all organisms harmful to the human body, and the last phase is to filter for the last time to remove all traces of impurities.

After finishing the phases of water purification is when they can be used for storage, and as long as it is used correctly you can drink 100% purified water without any harmful element for the human body, the device is only to be used with rainwater.

If we analyze and count the amount of water that is wasted after raining, even ends up in the sewage, also if you use this device can save a lot of money resulting from the purchase of drinking water, also means a viable solution for popular sectors where water is almost scarce or usually polluted.

It is estimated that in just 100 square meters of roof during the rainy season, an astonishing 15,000 liters of water can be collected. A figure that calls for reflection on how we use our water resources, imagine the millions of homes around the world and how much water they could collect.

A reflection that makes you think how the states of the world have decided how to manage our natural resources only under the unscrupulous interest of corporations that have little interest in the preservation of life and nature essential for the balance of the planet.

source

If this tendency develops in the big cities it could mean an improvement for the rivers and reserves of water, it is estimated that the next wars will be for conflicts for the water motivated to that they are less and less the reserves of fresh and potable water in the planet. In addition, pollution has made it very expensive to recover water. Above all because of the industrial chemicals that have been used.

source

A war for water would have devastating consequences for humanity not only because of human losses but also because of the imminent danger of more toxicity from the use of nuclear weapons. How far can human greed go? Will we be able to live in the not too distant future in perfect balance with the environment? Hopefully, the planet needs it.
