Water purification: simple and reliable methods

Summer – the time of active forays into nature and hiking.

Situations are sometimes different, and so that during your stay in the forest, on the river, etc. you do not have problems with drinking water, we suggest using very effective cleaning methods. Even a child can handle them.

Sun

This method is available to everyone and always, unless, of course, the weather is cloudy. A standard bottle of water (up to 2 liters) can be cleaned without any problems using a light. Just leave a container of water in the sun, and nature itself will do everything necessary. Active ultraviolet radiation will almost completely neutralize water from harmful microorganisms.  This method, of course, is not suitable for disinfecting chemically active water and is not very effective against most parasites and bacteria, but, in many cases, it is still quite applicable.

Boiling

This is the simplest and at the same time effective way, if, of course, you have matches and firewood. An untrustworthy liquid should be boiled for at least 30 minutes. This will be enough.

Salt

A very simple, but almost extreme method of water purification. Salt, of course, will not produce the effect of complete disinfection, but in any case, the water will definitely become cleaner. And if you have no other choice, use this option. For 2 liters of water you need 100 g of salt, mix your unusual drink well and leave it to settle for 20 minutes.

Iodine

If your campaign was preceded by the necessary preparation, then you must certainly have disinfectants with you. The best option in a situation with water – iodine tablets. Of course, the taste of water will not be very pleasant, but the choice in field conditions is not great.

Stone

It can be heated in a fire and placed in a container of water. This method is good if you don't have fireproof cookware.

Filter

If you're not smart enough to bring a water filter with you, you can make your own and in almost any situation – only a container is needed. The best option – the most common plastic bottle. At the bottom of it, make a few holes, then put a small piece of fabric previously folded 2-3 times inside. Now pour earth or sand into the bottle and start pouring water. The procedure must be repeated several times.  Ideally, the bottom level of your homemade "filter station" was made of coal.

On hikes, it often happens that the need for drinking water is greater than what was stored up. Among other things, extreme situations are not uncommon, when water purification becomes tantamount to life.

Therefore, each of us will always need to know several methods of how to make water suitable for drinking in a hike.
