Pure Water system is housed in this van on Deer Creek
Three Different Stages Are Used
In New Water Treatment Process
(Continued from Page 1)
Sulfur gas is used for this stage,
Next the water is transported to
an agitator where the precipitant,
lime, is added,
The precipitates are then
tem oved by filtration making the
water suitable for drinking.
Finally the precipitates are
transferredtoa reduction furnace
where they are reduced to an
alloy suitable for commercial
die-casting,
Raw sewage can be treated in a
similar manner by first removing
sticks, stones and other material
which cannot be transferred
through pipe lines and by filtering
off the bulk sewage and drying
and sacking it for sale as humus
fertilizer,
All of the byproducts obtained
during the process can be sold,
The bulk humus fertilizer can be
sold for an average of $6.50 per
50 pound sack. Between one to
five per cent of sewage is bulk,
Salt or saline water produces
livestock salt which can be
marketed at $1.49 per 40 pound
block, The metalalloy from the
waterhas a value of 16 cents per
pound, A gallon of water yields
about a quarter ounce of precipitates,
The aim of Pure Water, which
is the local name of the organi—
zation, iS to create interest in
the process by giving demonstrations here and then to sell
the processto municipalities and
other governmental units,
Huntington maintains that the
company will not be selling
domestic water, They will sell
the right to use the process and
willalso engineer and design any
plants purchased,
He pointed out that we have so
contaminated the land, streams
and air through the use of septic
tanks which eventually feed
bacteria back into the soil and
water, that even completely pure
water quickly becomes contaminated by bacteria again if
allowed to sit around long.
His solution isto treat all water
and all sewage by this new system
sothat bacteria normally carried
in sewage will have a chance to
destroy itself, Eventually he says,
by this method pollution will be
eliminated,
The system is here and what it
can do has been dramatically
demonstrated,
What the future holds for the
System as an answer to both our
water problems and pollution
problems is still unknown,
Whether the system holds out
the chance for Nevada County to
land a sizable industrial plant is
also still unknown,
