I tēnei wā e noho ana te hauora me te oranga tinana ki mua i ō tātou hinengaro, kua piki haere te āwangawanga mō te kounga o te wai e inumia ana e tātou. Ahakoa he haumaru te wai puna i te nuinga o ngā rohe, kei roto tonu i a ia ngā paru, ngā matū, me ngā poke ka tūpono ki te hauora i roto i te wā. Koinei te wāhi e uru mai ai ngā taputapu horoi wai, e tuku ana i tētahi otinga māmā engari whai hua hei whakarite kia ma, kia haumaru, kia kore hoki he matū kino i roto i te wai e inumia ana e tātou, e whakamahia ana e tātou.
Te Hiranga o te Wai Ma
He mea nui te wai mō te ora. He wāhanga nui o te tinana, he āwhina i te nakunaku, he whakahaere i te pāmahana o te tinana, ā, he āwhina ki te kawe i ngā matūkai puta noa i te pūnaha. Heoi, ina poke te wai i ngā poke pēnei i ngā konganuku taumaha (pēnei i te mata me te mercury), te chlorine, te huakita, te huaketo, ngā patupatu rānei, ka ara ake pea he maha ngā raruraru hauora, mai i ngā raruraru nakunaku iti ki ngā mate kino mō te wā roa. Hei tauira, ko te pānga roa ki te mata ka pā ki te whanaketanga o te roro, inā koa i roto i ngā tamariki, ko te inu wai he nui ngā huakita ka pā ki ngā mate puku.
He pēhea te mahi a ngā kaiwhakapai wai?
He maha ngā hangarau e whakamahia ana e ngā pūwero wai hei tango i ngā poke o te wai. Ko tētahi o ngā momo tino noa ko te tātari waro whakahohe. He whānui te mata o te waro whakahohe, ā, he hanganga pūwero hoki, e āhei ai te mimiti i ngā matū waro, te haukini, me ētahi matū. Ka whakaitihia te reka me ngā kakara kino i roto i te wai, kia reka ake ai.
Ko ngā pūnaha osmosis whakamuri (RO) tētahi atu kōwhiringa rongonui. Ka mahi ngā kaiwhakapaipai RO mā te pana i te wai mā roto i tētahi kiriuhi haurua-permeable me ngā pūwero ririki. Ka āraihia e tēnei kiriuhi te nuinga o ngā poke, tae atu ki ngā totoka rewa, ngā konganuku taumaha, me ngā moroiti, ka tukuna ko ngā ngota wai parakore anake kia puta. He tino whai hua ngā pūnaha RO ki te whakapaipai i te wai, ā, ka taea te tango i te 99% o ngā poke.
Ko te Ultrafiltration (UF) he hangarau e whakamahi ana i te kiriuhi he nui ake ngā pūwero ki te whakataurite ki te RO. Ka taea e ngā pūwero UF te tango i ngā huakita, ngā protozoa, me ētahi matū totoka iri, engari kāore pea i te tino whai hua ki te tango i ngā tote rewa me ngā ngota iti rawa. Kei roto hoki i ētahi pūwero wai te patu huakita ultraviolet (UV). Ka patua, ka whakakorea rānei e te mārama UV ngā huakita, ngā huaketo, me ētahi atu moroiti mā te kino i ō rātou DNA, kia kore ai te wai e pangia e ngā mate kino.​
Te Kōwhiri i te Pūwhakamātautau Wai Tika
I te wā e whiriwhiri ana i tētahi pūwhakamāori wai, me whai whakaaro ki ētahi āhuatanga. Tuatahi, aromatawaihia te kounga o tō wai. Mena kei te noho koe i tētahi rohe he nui te wai mārō (he nui te konupūmā me te konupora), ka hiahia pea koe ki tētahi pūwhakamāori ka taea te whakaiti i te mārō o te wai, pērā i te pūnaha RO. Mena ko te huakita me te paru te āwangawanga matua, he rawaka pea te tātaritanga ultra, te whakakotahitanga rānei o te UF me te tātari-mua.
Ko te kaha o te wai tētahi atu mea nui. Whakaarohia te tokomaha o ngā tāngata i roto i tō whare me tō wai e pau ana i ia rā. Mēnā he whānau nui ake, he whare rānei e nui ana te whakamahi wai, me nui ake te kaha o te horoi wai. Hei tāpiri, whakaarohia ngā whakaritenga tiaki mō te horoi wai. Me whakakapi pinepine ētahi tātari, ā, ka taea e tēnei te tāpiri atu ki te utu mō te whakamahinga o te horoi wai mō te wā roa.
He wāhi nui anō hoki tō te tahua. He whānui te utu mō ngā taputapu horoi wai, mai i ngā tātari āhua ipu iti te utu ki ngā pūnaha whare katoa, kounga teitei. Whakatauhia te nui o te moni e pai ana koe ki te whakapau, me te whakaaro anō ki te kounga me ngā āhuatanga e hiahiatia ana e koe.
Ngā Painga i tua atu i te Hauora
Ehara i te mea ka pai ake tō hauora i te haumi ki tētahi taputapu horoi wai, engari he painga anō hoki. Ka whakaitihia te hiahia ki te wai pounamu, he mea utu nui, engari he pānga nui ki te taiao. Ko te hanga, te kawe, me te whakakorenga o ngā pounamu wai kirihou ka whai wāhi ki te parahanga kirihou me ngā tukunga waro. Mā te whakamahi i tētahi taputapu horoi wai, ka taea e koe te whakakī i ngā pounamu ka taea te whakamahi anō, me te mahi i tāu wāhanga ki te whakaiti i te para me te tiaki i te taiao.
Hei whakamutunga, he mea tino nui ngā taputapu horoi wai mō te kāinga, mō te wāhi mahi rānei. Ka homai he rangimarie ki te hinengaro, me te mōhio he ma, he haumaru hoki te wai e inuhia ana e koe. He whānuitanga o ngā kōwhiringa e wātea ana, ā, kei reira he taputapu horoi wai hei whakatutuki i ngā hiahia me ngā tahua katoa. Nō reira, me mahi i te taahiraa tuatahi ki te hauora pai ake me te oranga pumau ake mā te whiriwhiri i te taputapu horoi wai tika mōu me tō whānau.
