What
is distillation?
Distillation is simply the process of heating water to its boiling point; capturing
and then condensing the pure steam to form pure distilled water. In nature this
process is known as the hydrologic cycle.
Consumable
needs.
Pure distilled water should be used for all of your consumable needs, or anything
that goes into your body. Whether you consume ice cubes, soup, coffee, tea,
pasta, rice, baby formula, juices, or just drinking water, the contaminants
that are in your tap water are still finding their way into your body
unless you are using pure distilled water.
How
nature purifies water.
Water is essential to all life. Without it the biosphere that exists on the
surface of the earth wouldn't be possible. Nicknamed the "water" planet, earth is covered by one of our most precious resources. However 97%
is locked in the oceans, toxic to humans and many plants and animals. How do
we obtain fresh water resources then?
Hydrologic
Cycle.
To understand, we need to turn to the Hydrologic Cycle. The Hydrologic Cycle (also called the water cycle) is the process that moves water around
the earth. The cycle starts with the sun heating water in our rivers, lakes
and oceans and turning it into water vapour, which rises into the air (called
evaporation). When water vapour cools it forms clouds (condensation), which become heavy with water and rains back to earth (precipitation).
Water
is not created or destroyed.
It is this process that cleans the earths water. Water is not created
or destroyed. Simply put, it is continually changing its form and location.
The water you drink today is likely to have been lapped up by animals and people
6 thousand years ago, or helped fill Julius Caesars bathing pool, or could
be a tear from Jesus Christ (Aramaic = Eshoo). The water we use now is
the same supply the human race started with. Its quality is renewed again and
again by the natural Hydrologic Cycle that our Creator originally set in place.
How
water distillers will purify your water.
Water Distillers are performing not only as one of the most effective forms
of treatment, but they're one of the easiest to understand:
- untreated water is converted into water vapour
- which is then condensed back into liquid form
Most of the contaminants are left behind in the boiling chamber, with the condensed
water being virtually contaminant-free.
Anyone
who has accidentally let a pot of water boil completely out on the stove is
familiar with this process, and familiar with the crust of contaminants typically
left behind after the water is gone.
In
nature, this basic process is responsible for the hydrologic cycle. The sun
causes water to evaporate from surface sources such as lakes, oceans, and streams.
The water vapour eventually comes in contact with cooler air, where it re-condenses
to form dew or rain. This process can be imitated artificially (e.g.
water distillation), and more rapidly than in nature, using alternative
sources of heating and cooling.
