By Maisie,Millie,Lucy,Kimberley and Codie

Facts about our tour

● The company use 16 thousand cubic metres of water per day

● The people of szolnok were worried about the company back in 2000 because the water level rose very high and there was very little sandbags.

● There is 8 pumps but they only use one because that one pump provides for the 8 cities.

● They also lower a bucket into the water of the river to test the water.

More facts about our tour

● They try to use a very low amount of chlorine in their water and they use the PH scale to see how much chlorine is in the water

● They add chlorine also to kill bacteria and keep the water clean

● A chemical called Bopac is also added to get rid of the objects in the water for example rocks and mud.

● Each basin has 1350 filters and there are 9 basins which filter through sand.

The process of changing the water

● The company use this process to take the dirty water and clean it for everyone to drink, this process is:

● 1) pump out the water from the river● 2)Add chlorine to kill the bacteria● 3)filter the water through sand traps to get rif of

things like stones● 4) add Bopac- depending on how much they

need● 5) add Ozone which is the second stage to

killing the bacteria.

Why use Ozone?

● They use Ozone because its more environmentally friendly than chlorine and they try to use as little chlorine as possible.

● Also the Ozone is cheaper and healthy too.
