1. Source Water Selection: Water is sourced from natural springs, wells, or municipal supplies. The quality of source water is tested to ensure it meets safety standards.
2. Pre-filtration: The water undergoes initial filtration to remove large debris, such as dirt, leaves, or other particles.
3. Activated Carbon Filtration: This step eliminates chemicals, chlorine, and organic contaminants that may affect taste or odor. Activated carbon effectively removes impurities and improves water quality.
4. Reverse Osmosis (RO) or Distillation: Water is subjected to reverse osmosis or distillation, which removes dissolved minerals, salts, and other micro-contaminants, ensuring high purity.
5. Mineralization: After purification, minerals such as calcium and magnesium may be added back to enhance the taste and nutritional value of the water.
6. UV Sterilization: The water is exposed to ultraviolet light to kill any remaining bacteria, viruses, or pathogens, ensuring it’s microbiologically safe.
7. Bottling: The purified water is then bottled in sterilized containers to prevent contamination. Bottles are sealed and labeled for distribution.
