Guest guest Posted November 11, 1999 Report Share Posted November 11, 1999 Be careful about dead water. That it can cause cancer. What exactly do you mean by dead water? Untreated water? For those of you who do know, With the proper filtration straight raw sewage can be made more pure than the sparkling stream water dancing past your farms. There are several methods of water treatment currently in use at waist water treatment plants, all of which work very well to one degree or another. The chemical system is to take raw sewage filter it. Aerate the still raw sewage. (run air bubbles through it) Then shoot the sewage into the air for a quick blast of sunshine and fresh air then into a settling tank where chemicals are introduced to bind the heavy metals and particulate material into a sludge them Iodine or chlorine or ozone is blasted through the water and soon, due to the modern miracles of science, chemicals, air and sunshine the water is now rendered fit to drink! Or you can run the raw water through a filter with microbes that eat the harmful bacteria and separate the sludge then run the Simi clean, but clear water through extremely tiny filters and pure sweet drinkable nice clear water emerges all due to a mechanical filters. The current fad is a kinder and gentler waist water treatment. Basically it is a series of long wide shallow trenches that wind around and around and lots of different aquatic plants bacteria's and grow in the channels and expose the raw sewage to sunshine and hungry bacteria and hungry plants over time the sewage will be purified with very few chemicals and the resulting in pure clean water. This process is initially more expensive takes up lots and lots of land and does not purify lots of water but it will work for a small town or village if the climate is correct and several other qualifications are met. All of these work and work well if done properly. But to say "dead water may cause cancer" well, if not sterilized or not have the heavy metals or mineral salts removed possibly. But waist water treatment is an extremely complex matter. There are whole libraries dedicated to the subject and there is an extreme amount of research in progress being done on this subject in the USA as we speak. Any book you read on the subject should not be more than two years old. The technology is moving at the speed of light. Waist water management is one of the fastest growing studies in the USA. The days of dumping raw sewage in a lake or river to get rid of it is soon to be a thing of the past.... Thank GOD! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Let's hope Krsna can direct us to find the right solutions! The problem is I like reading 'old books' Oh yes, so I see in the front cover. I can get them from Bath, England. The Foyles big bookshop of London told me "unavailable" Just see I don't have to go to Germany to get them. I have to hear from the Americans that I can get these books in my own country! It may have been because I was spelling Viktor with a C. A lot of his writing is way over my head, but in one place he says on dead water.. '..No wonder that, as a result of a complete disregard for original flow motion, today's hydraulically regulated water decays and dies. Instead of non-pathogenic bacteria, pathogenic bacteria come to life.' and on cancer.. '...types of water movement which accelerate water masses artificially come into question . Whether it is in a river, turbine, pump or canal it is unimportant. What is needed is water movement which approaches the condition of health (+4 degrees centigrade) for only then is economic growth possible. The natural, legitimate and progressive consequence of today's customary methods for mass movement of water (conventional hydraulics), for tilling the earth (by plough) ((!)), pumping water (by pressure turbine and pressure pump) or air movement (propeller and pressure screw), are pressure and heat increasing processes of retrogressive development (cancer). This will debase all growth, production, the more intensive and widespread the present methods of working become.' (Nature as Teacher, New principles in the working of nature, 1998). This water temperature is intersting. I remember travelling on the World Sankirtan party 20 years ago with Hansadutta in india. We used to stop and fill up a large clay pot with Ganga Jal. Everytime we got a new pot Hansdutta would pick up a stone and hit it until it cracked. He said that if you cracked the pot the water would very slowly trickle out and it would and did keep the water remarkably cool in the intense heat travelling on the roads of India. However I still got ameobic disentry - I think now that this was because we didn't let the water settle out the sediment for four days. We did this while in Mayapur for five months, 20 years later, and never got ill once. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
