INDUSTRY OF WATER PURIFIER IN INDIAN MARKET
ONE man's meat is another's poison can well be said in the context of the bottled water controversy. Even as the ripples seem far from receding on whether the pesticide-residue in packaged drinking water is a reason for concern — the water-purifier industry has lost no time in sniffing out an opportunity.
"Water from Waterguard is completely safe from harmful pesticides, bacteria, viruses and is economical too!", says an advertisement from Usha Shriram, advertising for its Usha Brita Water Purification Systems.
And in case you miss the point, the advertisement has in its background copies of media reports on `Pesticides in bottled water.'
Meanwhile, Eureka Forbes, touted to be the leader in the water purification segment, reacted more swiftly to the pesticide-issue and came out with "reassuring" advertisements, within a couple of days after the Centre for Science and Environment (CSE) came out with its controversial report.
The Ministry of Food Processing Industries held an inter-ministerial meeting on the issue, to "take stock and decide on the future course of action."
The Union Health Ministry too had met discuss the subject and according to sources; the inclination was towards aligning with the European Union (EU) norms.
However, the Bureau of Indian Standards reiterated its stand on the issue and said: "That it took into consideration the limits set by the USFDA, the EU, the World Health Organization (WHO), Codex etc. and decided that since bottled water was a value-added product and in keeping the public/consumer interest, the (BIS) committee unanimously decided to quantify the maximum limits for pesticide residue and made the necessary amendments to the two Indian standards".

Introduction UV Disinfection In Domestic UV Water Filters
Water is our most important natural resource and a very basic requirement for living, but due to rapid industrial growth and population explosion, our most valuable resource is getting polluted day by day and the most important problem is to know the contamination level of our water supply, since micro organisms and pathogens are naturally present in our natural water sources. Most of these micro organisms lead to various infections and diseases.
In order to get rid of the problem, we employ very safe and economical method of water purification, called ultra violet (UV) disinfection, which is performed in our UV Water purification system conforming to all existing drinking water standards of various municipal bodies across the world.
Process Explanation Of Domestic UV Water Filters
The feed water after some pre treatment is made to enter a specially designed UV chamber of our domestic ultra violet water purifier. Once water goes inside the uv chamber, it is exposed to ultra violet germicidal light of wave length 253 nano meters. This wave length of UV light proves fatal to bacteria, viruses algae and other microorganisms and effectively destroys 99.99% of them. Our domestic UV water filters are most effective tool in warding off most of the water borne diseases, such as cholera, typhoid, diarrhea, hepatitis, jaundice etc.
The housing of our UV germicidal lamp is made of quartz, which has a unique property of 100% penetration of UV light . This helps to maintain the maximum operating temperature of UV water filter.
Our domestic UV water filter does not change either physical or chemical property of the feed water . Hence the output water is 100% ready to use the moment it comes out of the system.
