Quoting: GSB/LTD Actually, the purpose is to produce potable water from some that is potentially tainted - which is precisely what Bleach does. And you're misusing the word "sterilize" because Bleach actually purifies. The DISTILLATION process sterilizes. Now then: for the more intelligent soul who asked, the ratio of plain 6% bleach to one gallon of non-potable water is 8 drops. There are 20 drops per ml of liquid; this means that a single gallon of common bleach can potentially purify 3,785 gallons of water. A 6% disinfecting gallon of brand name bleach such as Clorox currently sells for around $6. In contrast, even a low-end Berkey filtering water bottle system will cost you closer to $50 while full filter systems run well over $300... and then you have to replace the inner filter every 2-5 years... and where will you get THOSE when TSHTF, even IF you can still afford them? And while Brita filters are considered about the bottom of the barrel where water filters are concerned, even their basic fridge pitchers cost over twenty bucks. SO, DO THE MATH! And here's something else NO water filter -including the overpriced, over-hyped Berkey- can match: in addition to killing bacteria in water, common bleach also kills 99.9% of all surface household germs/bacteria including both Noro and Corona viruses, Influenza strains, MRSA, E. coli and Salmonella. But it's your money so spend it however you wish. Bro you’re actually retarded lol And I don’t throw that around often I typically reserve it for arrogant people who have no clue what they are talking about. Purification is making something pure, removing contaminants. Sterilization kills something, making it sterile Bleach cannot remove chemicals from water. It might sterilize 99% bacteria, but it sure as hell is not going to remove lead or flouride Distillation attempts to purify, by separating components based on boiling point. It is not perfect due to nano particles/highly bonded chemicals, but it will remove 80-90% of contaminants easily. If you are doing water, it acts as a purifier and sterilization method, since it’s both removing particles and killing bacteria Sorry, but you're flatly wrong that bleach won't neutralize Fluoride, because it DOES... and yes, it will do the same to some chemical compounds. Nevertheless you actually don't want all trace minerals removed since your body does require them in small quantities; that's why you shouldn't drink distilled water as your sole source of hydration. If you want absolutely pure water distillation is the way to go, but just make sure you also have some mineral supplements on hand to counter the deficiencies. Try again telling me I don't know what I'm talking about and keep shelling out those bucks for filter cartridges that will quickly vanish in a SHTF scenario, which is what this thread it all about. BTW: Lead as a contaminant is not a concern if using municipal water supplies because significant content is illegal under federal law that dictates only 15 parts per billion is allowed. And if you have a well dug on your property most states hold you to the same EPA standards. But as I've already stated twice: spend your money however you wish, but just know there are several alternative routes to purchasing a $300+ Berkey filtration system. I'll stick with 6% bleach and my distiller for the multiple reasons already stated. First distillation produces essentially pure water as long as it's not polluted with chemicals with the same temperature of evaporation. Second, the finer the filter the sooner and easier it gets plugged up and useless. Berkey is not intended to filter anything but treated municipal water, and if you try to filter anything with any particular contaminants it will plug up almost immediately and become useless. Lastly there's nothing fucking wrong or unhealthy with drinking distilled water as your major source of dietary minerals is FOOD that you eat, not water. Lack of mineralized water is a complete non-issue. Again, we're speaking of a SHTF scenario, where access to nutritional food sources will be hampered and if trace minerals are lacking in both food/water then yes, the deficiencies will eventually stack up on you. That's why one of my key pantry staples is an "instant Breakfast" that helps maintain nutrient/mineral levels; and I have further supplements I can also add to my diet as needed. I actually drink distilled water exclusively for several days whenever I want to detox my Kidneys and bladder and it works every time. BTW: an excellent anti-oxidant is freshly-brewed green Tea!

User ID: 75394950 United States 03/19/2022 01:23 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Chlorine bleach is cheaper and has worked pretty well since 1892, but go ahead and waste your money. Quoting: GSB/LTD bleach kills parasites and other nasties but it doesn't take chemicals out of the water. You should research what crap is in your city drinking water. I already have and that's why I'm not concerned enough to waste money on a Berky filter or a cobbled-together one using Colloidal Silver... which itself will become scarce when TSHTF. If you're that worried you'd be better off investing in a distilling unit [which I've actually done, but NOT for just water... if you catch my drift] since the components don't need replacing. But drink what you wish. Apparently you've gotten used to 4ppm CHLORAMINES. Don't be an idiot. OK? Superkicker |

Collect the middle fraction at the appropriate temperature for the distillation. Dump the last fraction unless there's a special compound there that you want. If so, collect it separately. |
