1. How do we prepare
water so that it´s
drinkable?
Which technology is used
for it?
2. Denmark
• 1. We have waterworks, which sends water to the cities around
them. The water is running in the underground, through pipes. I
come from Rask Mølle, and Rask Mølle is lying near Brande. In
Brande there is the cleanest water in whole Denmark. In Brande
They take the water from the underground and put it into bottles.
And In Rask Mølle we’re so lucky that the water we are tapping in
the fountain, is the same water you can buy in a bottle from Brande.
• 2. The water we’re drinking comes directly to our taps, from the
underground. The water we get from the underground is going
through pumps. Actually we’re not doing anything, besides
protecting our underground. When we tap water from our fountain
some of the water goes to waste. The Waste water is going directly
to the waterworks, and gets cleaned.
3. Spain
• The company manages all processes related to
the complete water cycle: catchment, drinking
water treatment, transport and distribution for
human consumption with full health guarantees.
• In our town we use SOREA, a company that
clean and supplies the water to the cities. That
company does the transportation of the water
using pipelines and pumping stations which
carry it to the urban center. There, they keep the
water into big tanks located in different places.
From these tanks they send the necessary
amount of water to the population.
4. UK
• Water in the Uk is distributed to areas of
the country by pipes that run underground.
We used to use aqueducts.
• In 1989 280,000 pounds was spent on
cleaning up the river tyne. This was
because the river was so dirty and full of
litter. They cleaned it up so that fish could
live there.
5. Germany
• The deep wells tap into the ground water
and jump it into the waterworks. Here in
the pumproom it´s prepared to be drinking
water. Machines descale the water and
the pH-value is adjusted. After that it is
pumped through the pipe lines to the
houses.
