Safe water practices involve methods and techniques aimed at ensuring that drinking water is free from harmful contaminants. These practices include:
Filtration: Removing particles and impurities from water using physical barriers, chemical processes, or biological agents. Chlorination: Adding chlorine to water to kill bacteria and other pathogens. Boiling: Heating water to a rolling boil to eliminate microorganisms. Regular Testing: Conducting routine checks to monitor the presence of contaminants and ensure compliance with safety standards. Public Education: Informing communities about the importance of water hygiene and safe storage practices.
