Re: Chlorine in distilled water


Hi InCharge, nice bit of research there, very interesting, thanks for the information. Yes, I guess the water cone is perhaps not as liberal in air circulation as I may have imagined. And it is interesting to see how the UK does disinfect water.

If I have time I will write to Thames water again and ask about this, and possibly look at their composition tests again. Or maybe someone here has already done this, or know the answer.

And of course, anything trapped in the air space in the cone, such as dust, bacteria etc, is likely to contaminate the distillate, and probably this applies to any distiller.

I am a little bit wary about the claims made though by that still company at
http://www.juicersaustralia.com.au/water_distillers_australia.shtml#Contaminants
because they have a commercial interest in selling it. It looks so convincing in black and white and grey - but I wonder how much that relates to reality? They seem to rely on their carbon filter to remove all contaminants, but have they tested the carbon filter itself, for contaminants introduced in the manufacturing process, for example? Probably NASA would, but I am not sure about these guys.

When I get the water cone, I will probably use rainwater anyway, from a water butt in my garden. For me it will be a cheap and inexpensive alternative to tap water, which is relatively clean anyway.

And on the grand scale of things, I live in South East London near busy roads and the City Airport, and I breathe polluted air containing various particulates, bacteria and chemicals every day, see
http://www.londonair.org.uk/
. It's not so bad today, but I can't see the point of going OTT on a water distiller, unless I put myself in in an airtight laboratory isolation chamber for the duration of the fast to completely avoid all impurities (even then I am not sure that would make any difference). However some purists here may be interested, and may have other views.
