Ko ngā kōrero poto mō ngā tātari wai: ka whakaitihia te haunga, ka whakakorea ngā reka rerekē, ā, ka ārai i ngā take paru. Engari ko te take matua e whiriwhiri ai te tangata i te wai tātari ko te hauora. Nō nā tata nei i whiwhi te hanganga wai i te United States i te whakatauranga D mai i te American Society of Civil Engineers. I kī te whakahaere ko ngā wai paru me ngā puna wai kua memeha haere ngā āwangawanga matua.

I te mea kei roto tonu i te wai ngā konganuku taumaha pērā i te mata me ngā matū pērā i te chlorine, he mea whakaharikoa te rongonga ka taea e te wai tātari te whakapai ake i tō tātou hauora me te tiaki i a tātou mai i ngā raruraru hauora nui. Engari me pēhea?

Whakaitihia te Mōrearea o te Mate Pukupuku

Ko te nuinga o te wai puna ka rongoatia ki ngā matū hei tango i ngā moroiti. He whai hua ngā matū pēnei i te chlorine me ngā chloramine ki te tango i ngā moroiti, engari ka taea e rātou te whakararu i te hauora. Ka taea e te chlorine te taunekeneke me ngā matū waro i roto i te puna wai hei hanga i ngā hua patu huakita. Ko ngā Trihalomethanes (THM) tētahi momo hua taha, ā, e mōhiotia ana ka whakanui ake i te mōrearea o te mate pukupuku me te raru pea i te whakaputa uri. E hono ana te chlorine me ngā chloramine ki te pikinga ake o te mōrearea o te whakawhanake i ngā mate pukupuku tōngāmimi me te rectum.

Ko ngā painga hauora o te wai tātari ko te whakaiti i te mōrearea o te mate pukupuku nā te mea kāore koe e pāngia e ēnei matū kino. He parakore, he ma, he haumaru hoki te inu i te wai tātari.

Tiakina i ngā Mate

Ina turuturu, ina waikura, ina pakaru rānei ngā paipa, ka taea e ngā huakita kino pēnei i te E. coli te uru ki roto i tō wai inu mai i te oneone me ngā wai e karapoti ana. Ka taea e ngā mate pāwera wai te whakaputa raruraru mai i te mamae o te puku ki te mate Legionnaires.

Ka whakangaromia e te pūnaha tātari wai he ārai hihi ultraviolet (UV rānei) te kaha o te pathogen, te moroiti rānei ki te whakaputa uri. Ka taea e te wai tātari te tiaki i a koe me tō whānau mai i te tini o ngā huaketo me ngā mate e hua mai ana i ngā mea rauropi.

Whakamakukuhia tō kiri me tō makawe

Mā te kaukau i te wai whai hauwai ka maroke, ka pakarukaru, ka whero, ka riri hoki tō kiri. Ka taea hoki e te wai whai hauwai te whakapōuri i ō makawe. He mea noa ēnei tohu katoa mō ngā kauhoe e noho ana i roto i ngā puna kaukau o te rohe, engari mō te kaukau i tō kāinga, kāore he take e whakapataritari ai i tō kiri me ō makawe ki te hauwai.

Ka tātarihia e ngā pūnaha tātari wai o te whare katoa ngā poke pēnei i te chlorine me te chloramines ina uru mai ki roto i tō whare. Kāore he matū kino i roto i tō wai, ahakoa e puta mai ana i tō totohu kīhini, i te pane kaukau rānei. Ki te kaukau koe i roto i te wai tātari mō ētahi marama, ka kite pea koe kua kanapa ake ō makawe, ā, kua ngawari ake, kua ngāwari ake hoki tō kiri.

Horoia tō kai

Mā te horoi i ō huawhenua ki roto i te totohu i mua i te whakarite huamata ka taea te whakapoke i tō tina ki te chlorine me ētahi atu matū kino. Mā te kai chlorine i roto i tō kai ka roa te wā ka piki ake tō tupono ki te pāngia e te mate pukupuku o te ū — E tohu ana a Scientific American he 50-60% te nui ake o ngā hua chlorine i roto i te kiko o te ū o ngā wāhine whai mate pukupuku o te ū i ngā wāhine kāore he mate pukupuku. Mā te wai tātari koe e tiaki i ngā tūponotanga o te kai chlorine i roto i tō kai.

Mā te whakarite i tāu kai me te wai tātari kāore he matū, he wai parahanga rānei, ka taea hoki e koe te whakarite i ngā kai reka ake, kai pai ake hoki. Ka pā te hauota ki te reka me te tae o ētahi kai, inā koa ngā hua pēnei i te rimurapa me te taro.
