I know you must be thinking how can you reuse waste water, that’s disgusting. You could be right, but first let’s find out the facts. All water is recycled and reused as a part of natural water processes such as the hydrologic cycle. Water recycling is also known as water reuse or water reclamation. Recycling waste water can extend water supplies, improve the quality of your water, reduce discharge and disposal cost of waste water, and save energy. Water recycling reclaims water from a variety of sources then purifies it and reuses it for beneficial purposes such as agriculture and irrigation, portable water supplies, groundwater replenishment, industrial processes, and environmental restoration. Treated and recycled waste water provides a cost-efficient supply that decreases the demands and stress on fresh water resources. 11 June, 2025 THE RECYCLING PROCESS Water recycling is the process of taking waste water & sewage and treating it so that it can be reused. For drinkable use, the recycled water has to be treated a sufficiently high standard that is suitable for human consumption. Waste water goes through micro filters, the water undergoes a reverse osmosis process, which is a water purification process that uses a partially permeable membrane to separate ions, unwanted molecules and larger particles from water. As an addition precaution the water undergoes oxidation and disinfection, using hydrogen peroxide and very strong ultraviolet light. It can then be stored in a water storage and used for daily necessities. Before it is appropriate for human consumption, the blended recycled and regular water also undergoes the normal drinking water treatment. H2o Solutions Tech Limited with its partners have a track record of experience in the installation of biogas systems, bio-composter systems and waste water treatment systems for various institutions and residences. With these systems we help to protect the environment and provide our clients with cost effective solutions. Share This Article Facebook-f Twitter Linkedin-in

Reverse Osmosis (RO) is a water purification process that uses a partially permeable membrane to separate ions, unwanted molecules and larger particles from drinking water. In reverse osmosis an applied pressure is used to overcome osmotic pressure, a colligative property that is driven by chemical potential differences of the solvent, a thermodynamic parameter. Reverse osmosis is most commonly known for its use in drinking water purification from seawater, removing the salt and other effluent materials from the water molecules. 10 June, 2025 HOW DO YOU OPERATE A REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM? STEP 1: Make sure that the air valve is open before starting the RO system. STEP 2: Switch the valve to back wash to start the back wash. STEP 3: Switch to Feed Pump when doing back wash (green button). Step 4: Switch the valve to filter after 10 minutes of the back wash. STEP 5: Switch back to Pressure Pump after doing backwash (green button). STEP 6: When the pure water tank is full Switch off Pressure Pump to shut down the system (red button). STEP 7: Then Switch off Feed Pump (red button). STEP 8: And finally close air valve. WHAT DO YOU DO WHEN SYSTEM STOPS WORKING? If you ever face any issues with your RO system, please contact us and we will do our best to solve your issues. Do not tamper with system if you have no expertise in operating it. NOTE: The system should be backwashed daily to remove sediment from the surface of the membranes. ORDER FOR YOU REVERSE OSMOSIS SYSTEM BUY NOW Facebook-f Twitter Linkedin-in

Waterborne diseases are usually caused when a person drinks, bathes in, washes with or prepares food with water that has been contaminated by bacteria, viruses or parasites, usually from human or animal waste. 9 June, 2025 Types of waterborne diseases include diarrhea, dysentery and cholera. Diarrhea, though common and easy to treat in sanitary living conditions, can be deadly without medical care and clean water since the rapid loss of fluids can lead to severe dehydration. Generally, if blood is passed, the illness is not diarrhea but dysentery. Cholera is a more severe infection. Symptoms include profuse diarrhea and vomiting, sunken eyes, wrinkled hands and the skin turning a bluish-grey hue. Cholera progresses very quickly, within one to five days of infection, and if left untreated, can lead to death. Water is essential in our everyday lives. Every 90 seconds a child dies from a water related disease. The water crisis is the #1 global risk based on impact to society. Over 90% of water tanks in Ghana are highly contaminated and it is a common source of water borne diseases such as: Cholera, Legionella, Malaria, and other life threatening viruses. Even as you shower water enters through your pores and harms you as much as drinking water directly. Micro-worms and microorganisms have already invaded your tanks, if you have not cleaned it professionally in the last six months. 780 million lack access to an improved water source.   We Help Make Water Safe H₂O Solutions specializes in water purification and treatment.

Our engineers received an email from a client requesting for a borehole for his resident. They started working on the site the following day. We began by doing a hydrological survey and when they were pleased with the results they started drilling the next day. After a full day of drilling the job was complete they just had to wait two days for the water to accumulate, so that they could install the pump. Within 48 hours they installed the pump and soon the client’s tank was being filled with water.   Our Treatment Process 5 June, 2025 Two days later they went back to test the water only to find that it was salty, they ensured the concerned client that they had a permanent solution that would even make the salty water drinkable. Reverse osmosis (RO) is a water purification process that uses a partially permeable membrane to separate ions, unwanted molecules and larger particles from drinking water. In reverse osmosis, an applied pressure is used to overcome osmotic pressure, a colligative property that is driven by chemical potential differences of the solvent, a thermodynamic parameter. Reverse osmosis can remove many types of dissolved and suspended chemical species as well as biological ones (principally bacteria) from water, and is used in both industrial processes and the production of potable water. The result is that the solute is retained on the pressurized side of the membrane and the pure solvent is allowed to pass to the other side. To be “selective”, this membrane should not allow large molecules or ions through the pores (holes), but should allow smaller components of the solution (such as solvent molecules, i.e., water, H2O) to pass freely. Reverse osmosis is most commonly known for its use in drinking water purification from seawater, removing the salt and other effluent materials from the water molecules. Our engineers gathered the necessary materials to install the system, within 48 hours the R.O system was installed, the salt in the water was treated and the client’s entire residence was filled with clean drinkable water.

Our engineers got an urgent call from a client, with a serious case of iron filled water. They responded immediately and went to the site. They were met with a tank stained with iron, rusted pipes and reddish brown water. They tested the iron water in their lab the following day and it came back with shocking results, the total iron was 6.15 mg/L when WHO (World Health Organization) standards is 0.30 mg/L. They started treatment immediately. After much consideration our expertise decided that red sand treatment was the best antidote to provide the desired outcome, due to our previous experiences. The Treatment Process 3 June, 2025 After two working days the job had been completed and for the first time the client’s residence had pure running water, but unfortunately two weeks later our engineers got another call from the client, the deadly iron was back. The client told us how the water slowly started to become discolored. Our engineers went back into the lab to intensify their research, they worked tirelessly to find a permanent solution to the deadly iron.  The next day the engineers had good news, they possibly found a permanent solution. They just had to put it to the test and hopefully it would work out perfectly. After a full working day, the new treatment was installed. The Frp Vessel Katalox was ready to perform. Our engineers waited another two weeks to see the results. They went back to the site to find that the new filtration treatment was a success and the deadly iron had been cured and this time for good. If you ever find yourself in the same dilemma, we’ve got you covered. Katalox is being used in numerous system for residential, commercial, industrial and municipal applications worldwide, for High level filtration, color and odor removal, iron, Manganese, Hydrogen sulfide removal, efficient reduction of Arsenic, Zinc, Copper, Lead, Radium, Uranium and other radionuclides and heavy metals.

Water is arguably the most essential commodity available to man. Without it, life would be unbearable. For many years, people have drunk water from well, streams, lakes and rivers. Most households harvest rainwater. These sources of water usually come untreated. With the expansion of population and industrial revolution, almost all of our sources of water have become contaminated. These extreme water pollution has for years, caused the outbreak of diseases such as cholera, typhoid, dysentery, salmonella, E. Coli amongst others. THE TRUTH ABOUT SACHET WATER 4 June, 2025 There’s been a sudden upsurge of bottled and sachet water companies in the Country. Some of these producers get their water from boreholes, springs and even the pipe borne water from the Ghana Water Company Limited (GWCL). Different water sources have different purity levels. Consumers therefore must take into consideration the source of the water they are using. Sachet water, commonly referred to as pure water, has become a household name. It refers to water that has been packaged into small sachet bags for easy mobility. It is cheaper to produce, transport and readily accessible. The high cost of bottled water has given way to people who are not properly trained to produce sachet water. It has therefore become necessary for consumers to be extra conscious of the health risks associated with the consumption of sachet water. Here are four of the reasons why we should stop taking sachet water. The first reason why we must avoid sachet water is the lack of proper supervision. Most of the sachet water producers are not monitored. Some operate in remote areas with fake registration numbers and address, thereby making it difficult for authorities like the Ghana Standard Authority to monitor them. It is possible that the water will not be produced under proper hygienic conditions. Also, the water might not be well treated which can result in disease contamination. Water that is not properly treated produces foul taste and odour making it very unpleasant and unsafe for drinking. The inability of authorities to monitor them means also, that we cannot trust the production and expiry dates placed on them. Taking in such unpleasant water from untrusted sources can be injurious to health. The second reason why we must stop taking sachet water is the possibility of Bisphenol A (BPA) leaching into the water. BPA is a chemical that is used primarily for the manufacturing of various plastics which includes the one used in packaging sachet water. When the sachets are exposed to the sun, it causes the BPA to leach into the water. Distribution vehicles that supply water to the vendors usually expose them to the sun. Because the vendors are also not properly trained on how to handle the water, they expose them to the sun’s rays when they store them outside. The longer the exposure, the more the BPA will be leached into the water. BPA has been linked to several health issues including hypertension, heart attack and breast cancer. Thirdly, sachet water poses grave danger to the environment. The improper disposal of sachet water bags has become a major cause of river and sea pollution. The bags are made of nonbiodegradable synthetic polyethylene which does not decay, decompose or corrode, and which when burnt, produces oxides of carbon, nitrogen and Sulphur causing land and air pollution. Environmental littering discussions cannot be held without the mentioning of sachet bags. Almost all of our blocked drainage system is caused by plastics. Sachet water is cheaper and readily accessible but no proper means of disposal is available. Lastly, the sachet water you are taking could only be the tap water from the GWCL. Avoid the health risks associated with drinking directly from the tap. Tap water is usually exposed to bacteria, unregulated chlorine, and other contaminants that are harmful to health. These can cause serious infections, especially to kids who have a lower immune system hence more vulnerable. Also, if you are only drinking unpurified water from the tap in the form of sachet water, then you are paying more for an inexpensive commodity from GWCL by other means. Sachet water consumption comes with risks that can be avoided by other means such as Reverse Osmosis and Water Dispenser. A Reverse Osmosis (RO) System is a form of filtration that removes particles from water. It is a proven technology that removes a wide range of disease causing contaminants from water. RO deionizes water by forcing it at high pressure through a semi permeable membrane that prevents the passage of various substances. It is the only water filtration method that purifies sea water. It also removes bad taste and odour associated with contaminated water. RO employs an Ultraviolent(UV) water purification system that removes 99% of dissolved substances like fluoride, ion, chlorine, herbicides and pesticides from water. UV water purifier makes water borne diseases inactive by exposing them to UV rays. It is mounted in such a manner that when water passes through, it will be exposed to UV rays that will penetrate the cells of bacteria and destroy their ability to reproduce. The germs are destroyed with UV rays after the RO stage and gives pure drinking water RO is cost-effective and can work perfectly with or without electricity. RO is easy to install and maintain and can also fit perfectly under the kitchen sink. When you have it installed, you can forego the purchasing of bottled water because you can equally get clean water at home. Like the reverse osmosis system, a water dispenser offers purified, safe, and clean drinking water. They are convenient devices that provides a quick and easy way to obtain drinking water. Bottled water coolers are an alternative way to provide instantly chilled, filtered water. Water dispensers provide the option of having your water cooled or heated immediately. This feature has made these devices a necessity in many residential homes and businesses. Water dispensers goes through a three-step filtration process to provide purified water. The first step is the

Water is a major necessity in our everyday lives, we use water for numerous purposes whether it’s for agriculture, hygiene, cooking etc. In most residences and companies across West Africa water tanks are being used to store water, and only a few of those tanks are being cleaned and treated every six months, this is proven to be very deadly. Untreated water carries a lot of bacteria and if used to cook, clean, shower or farm can lead to deadly water borne diseases. More than 3.4 million people die each year from water related illness. HOW OFTEN DO YOU CLEAN YOUR TANK? Through our experience as a Water Sanitation company we have witnessed highly contaminated water storages that have left owners of residences and companies in shock at just how contaminated water storages can become if left with no regular treatment. A water tank should be cleaned and treated at least twice annually. Even as you shower water enters through your pores and harms you as much as drinking water directly. 780 million lack access to an improved water source. Provision of safe water, sanitation and hygienic conditions is essential for human health during all infectious disease outbreaks, including the corona virus disease 2019 (COVID-19). Follow the link for more information. When you open your water faucet, the water may look clean, but it can still be contaminated usually when your tank is contaminated the dirt sits at the bottom of tank. Storage tanks can also be stained with iron and should be treated immediately. Untreated tanks can lead to diarrhea, cholera, dysentery, malaria, typhoid and many others. Ensure you keep your tank clean. H2o Solutions specializes in Tank cleaning and treatment. If you ever find yourself with a contaminated tank contact us immediately. Ensure you have fresh water running into your residences and companies. Saving Lives One Tank At A Time. Share This Article Facebook-f Twitter Linkedin-in

Water is one of the most valuable resources on the Earth. About 71% of the Earth’s surface is water-covered, hence why Earth is also known as ‘Blue Planet’. The majority of fresh water is actually found underground as soil moisture and in aquifers. It will surprise you that most of the water in the Earth’s atmosphere and crust comes from saline seawater, while fresh water accounts for 1% of the total. The majority of the water on Earth is saline or salt water. WHERE IS EARTH’S WATER? 21 May, 2025 The ocean holds 97% of the Earth’s water, the remaining is fresh water found in glaciers and ice, below the ground, in rivers, lakes and in the atmosphere. Water flows endlessly between the ocean, atmosphere and land. Earth’s water is finite, which means that the amount of water in, on and above our planet does not increase or decrease, amazing right! According to the U.S Geological Survey if all the earths water (oceans, icecaps, and glaciers, lakes, rivers, groundwater, and water in the atmosphere) was put into a sphere, then the diameter of that water ball would be about 860 miles (about 1,385 kilometers). The fresh water resources, such as water falling from the skies and moving into streams, rivers, lakes, and groundwater, provide people with the water they need every day to live. There is more to our water supply than just surface water, there is also plenty water beneath our feet.                                                THE WATER CYCLE The water cycle, also known as the hydrologic cycle or the hydrological cycle, is biogeochemical cycle that describes the continuous movement of water on, above and below the surface of the Earth. The water cycle describes how water evaporates from the surface of the earth, rises into the atmosphere, cools and condenses into rain or snow in clouds, and falls again to the surface as precipitation. The water falling on land collects in rivers and lakes, soil, and porous layers of rock, and much of it flows back into the oceans, where it will once more evaporate. Water is always changing states between liquid, vapor, and ice, with these processes happening in the blink of an eye and over millions of years. Truth be told the water cycle has no starting point, it’s a never ending cycle, but what we do know is that it’s essential for human life and we need to cherish it. As a water treatment and service company we aim to provide treated and fresh water any chance we get. We understand the importance of water and how the lack of treated water is crucial to ourselves as well as our planet. Our goal is to provide access to treated water and to spread awareness on how important it is to our everyday lives. Saving Lives One Drop At A Time.

Rain water harvesting is the process of collecting or storing rain water for non-consumptive or consumptive purposes. Many people don’t know the benefits of harvesting rain water, but for those that are aware it helps save on financial resources and if treated properly can be used for consumption. How much do you know about rainwater harvesting and what’s the best solution to provide your residences or businesses with treated rain water. We have all the answers right here, rain water is a free natural resource and no matter how much you collect, you will never receive that monthly water bill. I know you must be wondering how does it work, well let’s find out. Rainwater harvesting is a simple process to conserve Rainwater by collecting, storing, conveying and purifying of Rainwater that runs off from rooftops, parks, roads, open grounds, etc. for later use. The Process of harvesting Rain water 12 May,2025 • Catchment- Used to collect and store the captured Rainwater. • Conveyance system – It is used to transport the harvested water from the catchment to the water tanks. • Flush- It is used to flush out the first spell of rain. • Filter – Used for filtering the collected Rainwater and remove pollutants. • Tanks – Used to store the filtered water which is ready to use. The rainwater harvesting system is one of the best methods practiced and followed to support the conservation of water. Today, scarcity of good quality water has become a significant cause of concern. However, Rainwater, which is pure and of good quality, can be used for washing, cleaning, bathing, cooking and also for other agriculture purposes.
