the water we use it gets into drainage system is that same water we consume.if not so where it goes?


Q:where used water goes?

Local water filtering facilities that go through a thorough process of making it clean for consumption.
it’s NOT the same water. i thought that too when i was a kid and started getting grossed out at taking showers because i thought it was water we had already used. i’m not sure where exactly it goes, but it’s not the same stuff you use again.
Some info that i can share with you as follow;NEWater is Reverse Osmosis WaterNEWater is the product from a multiple barrier water reclamation process. The first barrier is the conventional wastewater treatment process whereby the used water is treated to globally recognised standards in the Water Reclamation Plants.The second barrier is the first stage of the NEWater production process known as Microfiltration (MF). In this process, the treated used water is passed through membranes to filter out and retained on the membrane surface suspended solids, colloidal particles, disease-causing bacteria, some viruses and protozoan cysts. The filtered water that goes through the membrane contains only dissolved salts and organic molecules. The third barrier or the second stage of the NEWater production process is known as Reverse Osmosis (RO). In RO, a semi-permeable membrane is used. The semi-permeable membrane has very small pores which only allow very small molecules like water molecules to pass through. Consequently, undesirable contaminants such as bacteria, viruses, heavy metals, nitrate, chloride, sulphate, disinfection by-products, aromatic hydrocarbons, pesticides etc, cannot pass through the membrane. Hence, NEWater is RO water and is free from viruses and bacteria and contains very low levels of salts and organic matters. At this stage, the water is already of a high grade water quality. The fourth barrier or third stage of the NEWater production process really acts as a further safety back-up to the RO. In this stage, ultraviolet or UV disinfection is used to ensure that all organisms are inactivated and the purity of the product water guaranteed. With the addition of some alkaline chemicals to restore the acid-alkali or pH balance, the NEWater is now ready to be piped off to its wide range of applications. In fact, RO is a widely recognized and established technology which has been used extensively in many other areas. This includes the production of bottled drinking water and production of ultra-clean water for the wafer fabrication and electronics industry. RO is also becoming increasingly popular as one of the technologies used in desalination of seawater for human consumption. It is also used to recycle used water to drinking water on space shuttles and on International Space Stations.
Sewer water goes to the sewer treatment plant, where it is processed and cleansed. It is then released back into the natural ecosystem where nature will clean it up some more. Eventually it is once again captured by water treatment plants that prepare it for safe use by humans.
yes its all recycling..water comes from well’s deep holes in the earth even city water. when it rains in goes into the same earth,,if u polute the earth you reap what u sow..when they throw shyt into the rivers and it goes into our wells,dont worry the white man made the air just as nasty..how many people u know that have cancer or asthma??..this is why its against the law to throw used oil in the ground,,but what about insecticides??
unfortunately its true, its goes to water treatment plant. 🙂
Water is naturally recycled. The water you drink today is the same that dinosaurs drank long ago. You can figure where it has all came from.
all waste goes to a treatment plant in a city or large town with stricked procedures. They treat the water with chemicals then it is put beack into rivers all clean & clear
it all ends up getting recycled eventually.. it gets treated so its clean 🙂 specially if your on municple water.. in the country they have those septic systems and stuff.. so that water isn’t recycled
It goes to a water treatment plant more than likely. In Spain they recyle it .. have you never seen a sewage treatment plant.. pooohhhh!!!
yes and no. if you have public sewer then it goes to a treatment plant where it is purifed then the clean water is put into a river or ocean. it may end up in your drinking water again eventualy but public water goes through quite an extensive purification system also so its nice and clen when you get it. if you have a septic tank then the more luiqudy wast goes into a leach field when bacteria breaks it down and it is retunred to the soil and eventual makes it back to an aquiferover a decent amount of time and the soil it goes through to get there helps to purify it. if you have a well you might end up drinking it again but it will be a long time before that happens. no matter what you will never drink water that hasnt been naturaly or artifically cleansed.
If your area does recycle the water, it goes to a water filtration plant where the water is treated and purified before being put back into the system. Places that do not recycle use resevoir systems and as water is pulled from there it still goes through a filtration system first.
Water, like all other resources, is always recycled. The drainage water before it reaches us have to go through different natural & man made process. Even the water seeps into ground it is naturally filtered by different layers of soil & rocks. Soil & rock have some natural chemical & salts which kill bacteria & other harmful germs while seepage. That water mixes with other fresh water which is flowing in the underground water streams. Its futher purified & becomes drinkable. Its difficult to pinpoint which water reaches us as there are many other factors like the trees also use the same water with there process of reverse osmosis. A part of water evaporates & comebacks in form of rainfall. Nowadays the water is being treated by water treatment plants which remove all the harmful ingredients. That water is not used for drinking but for irrigation or simply flown into the sea or rivers. The drinkable water is only which we are getting from the underground resources. But nowadays even the underground water is being polluted, like some industries dump the dyes & chemicals without treating them, the same water reaches under ground water & pollutes that water with chemicals. So its always advised to use water wisely.
The water we use today is the same water that has been around since this planet began. The water gets treated and cleaned so it is safe for human consumption. Don’t freak about it!! At least it’s being cleaned unlike a few hundred years ago!!
Waste water from the sewers (all the drains and toilets in your house) will go to a sewage treatment center. From there it will be pumped into a lake or river or something once it is cleaned and what not. Storm drains on the street will go to a pond close by which will drain into a lake or river probably though other ponds. They used to make them to straight to the rivers but then they released this caused flash floods.If you live out in the country you waste water will go to a septic tank which is like a mini water treatment plant kind of. Then it will drain it out underground thorough its fingers somewhere in your yard.Eventually it all gets to the ocean evaporates becomes rain and starts all over and gets reused. Or just sucked up by someone further down stream and reused.
the answer to your question of where it goes depends.If you have a septic tank used water goes out through drainage lines underground and seeps down in the earth.If you have sewer lines it goes to a sewage plant where it is treated chemically to clean it. Then it can be fed back into waterways.so technically all waters are eventually reused.
