Project Description
"One of the problems of our Shelter and town is water. Even after boiling water preserves unpleasant smell and aftertaste of iron. Water is very necessary for children. Members of club “Nissan 4x4” do their best to improve the situation. Each time they came they bring with them 5- liter bottles with drinking water. They also insisted on analysis and sample of water were send to laboratory “Ecotech-Moscow”. According to the results the index of the turbidity of water exceeds the maximum permissible value 4 times, the index of iron - 3 times. A study of the indices of the pollution of water revealed exceeding the total microbial number 2 times from the permissible standard. The selection of the necessary equipment for the preparation of water of drinkable designation was produced on the basis of the obtained results." - Natalya Vladimirovna Babina - Director
