Speaking for a WELL WATER source, but it shouldn't really matter, I mean I know the "current systems" that they sell commercially do not really GO ALL THE WAY... i know that the system I am looking for wil perhapsl be expensive until it is mass produced. Anybody got any ideas. I am willing to INVEST MONEY in such a system which will produce 100% pure water no strings attached.

What kind of "system" do I need to insure PURE WATER?
Is there something electrical? What are the "realms" of ellectricity?

basics:
IMAGINE a water source that was PURE... it went thru PURIFIERS , FILTERS, UV light zappers, DISTILATION and condensers (and maybe other methods that I am unaware of)and the TAP is metered so that you can see it registers PURE.

I do not want to just be EATING "random minerals" I want PURITY. Some of those minerals you speak of adding taste to the water woudl cause HAIR to FALL OUT or perhaps cancers. There are people who use DANGEROUS minerals for "fertilizers" and that is an issue as well.... I want CLEAN WATER and SAFE CROPS

Distillation or Reverse Osmosis

The biggest question is what are you using it for? Then, what contaminants are in the water that you want to filter out. That's a major factor to consider when shopping for a purification system. You also need to consider the quantity of water you'll need. If it's a lot, you should talk to a semiconductor manufacturing plant and see what they use in their D.I. water system. (They use a lot of ultra pure deionized water every day.)

Typically, water contains a lot of dissolved minerals. For home use, a water softener does a good job of filtering a lot of this out. A good residential well setup could have a sediment filter to start with, then a water softener, and follow that up with a reverse osmosis filter for drinking water.

The reverse osmosis filter is about 10% efficient, meaning that it wastes water down the drain during the filtering process.

Distillation is not energy efficient since it requires boiling the water to steam, then condensing it.

If there are chemicals or heavy metals in the water, then you need to install the appropriate filter to remove those.

Basically, the more pure you require the water, the more it will cost. Beyond a certain level, it becomes impractical. You'll find that 100% purity is impossible. But you can get close.

There is'nt really a good system that will remove everything out of your water. A reverse osmosis machine for home would be very expensive. The big commercial systems are around $100,000. Most home systems (or filters) only get about half of the minerals and chemicals out.

The only way to get 100% "pure" water is through electrolisys and then re-combination (spark the hydrogen and the oxygen gasses) to get "pure" water. De-ionization and then distelation would probably work also.

With that said, the water produced is highly reactive and doesn't taste like "drinking water". Pure water doesn't want to stay pure, it wants to suck up some minerals. Water that comes out of the ground usually has calcium in it (hard water). Good drinking water has minerals in it to give it "good" taste. You don't want to drink "pure" water.

You might want to look at some of the RO (reverse osmosis) filtration systems used in the semiconductor industry for generating the ultra pure (spectrometry-grade pure) water used in semiconductor fabrication.

Dosent matter ,either it si ground warer,under ground water or from municipalty,if you want your own pure water for drinking purpose( not comercial) go for any water treatment mebrane ....
there are many products in market ,using membrane technology and u can buy it within $.200.
enjoy pure water!

In the lab, we use "double distilled under glass." Not perfect, but good enough.
