Cara Pengecekan Air Minum Layak Konsumsi Bisa Anda Lakukan Sendiri Di Rumah

Summary

In this video, the presenter tests the quality of three types of water—well water, mineral water, and reverse osmosis (RO) water—using TDS and pH meters. The results reveal that well water has a relatively high PPM (411) but a neutral pH, making it drinkable with proper treatment. Mineral water has a safe PPM of 61 and a pH of 7.6, which meets WHO standards. RO water has a PPM of 0 and a neutral pH, making it suitable for individuals with kidney health issues but not recommended for everyday consumption. The video emphasizes the importance of water treatment and quality checks for safe consumption.

Takeaways

• 😀 Regular consumption of water is essential for health.
• 💧 The script discusses three types of water: well water, bottled mineral water, and Reverse Osmosis (RO) water.
• 🔬 TDS (Total Dissolved Solids) and pH tests are used to assess water quality for consumption.
• 📊 Water suitable for consumption should have a TDS value below 500 mg per liter and a pH between 6 and 8.5.
• 🧪 The RO water had a TDS value of 0, indicating it contains no dissolved minerals.
• 💦 The bottled mineral water had a TDS of 61 ppm and a pH of 7.6, which is within recommended standards for drinking water.
• 🌍 WHO recommends drinking water to have a TDS of below 100 mg per liter for optimal health.
• 🚰 Well water tested at 411 ppm TDS and pH 7.7, which is considered acceptable but requires prior treatment (like boiling) before consumption.
• ⚖️ RO water is beneficial for people with kidney health issues because it lacks minerals, making it gentler on the kidneys.
• 🔑 Despite its benefits, RO water is not ideal for daily consumption due to the lack of minerals, and it’s recommended for special health conditions.
• 🥤 It is advised to consume mineral water regularly as it meets health standards for drinking water, containing essential minerals and balanced pH.

Q & A

What is the purpose of this video?

The purpose of the video is to test the quality of three different types of water—well water, mineral water, and reverse osmosis (RO) water—by checking their Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) and pH levels to determine whether they are safe for consumption.

How is the water quality tested in the video?

The water quality is tested using two simple instruments: a pH meter to measure the pH level of the water, and a TDS meter to measure the Total Dissolved Solids (TDS) or parts per million (PPM) in the water.

What is the acceptable range for PPM and pH in drinking water?

For drinking water to be considered safe, the PPM should be below 500 mg per liter, and the pH should be between 6.0 and 8.5.

What were the results for the pH and PPM of reverse osmosis (RO) water?

The RO water had a PPM of 0, indicating that it contains no dissolved minerals. The pH was 7, which is considered neutral.

How did the mineral water perform in the tests?

The mineral water had a PPM of 61, which is within the acceptable range for safe consumption, and a pH of 7.6, which is also within the healthy pH range.

What were the results for the well water tested in the video?

The well water had a PPM of 411, which is below the 500 mg per liter threshold for safe consumption. Its pH was 7.7, indicating that it is neutral and safe for consumption, though it should be treated before drinking.

Is well water safe to drink without treatment?

Although the well water has a PPM of 411, which is below the threshold for safe consumption, it is recommended to treat or boil the water before drinking to ensure it is safe.

Why is reverse osmosis (RO) water not recommended for daily consumption?

RO water lacks minerals entirely, as it has a PPM of 0. While it can be beneficial for people with kidney issues, it is not recommended for everyday consumption as it lacks essential minerals needed by the body.

What type of water is most recommended for everyday drinking?

Mineral water is most recommended for everyday consumption due to its balanced PPM (61) and neutral pH (7.6), making it suitable for regular hydration.

Can anyone perform the same water tests at home?

Yes, the water tests can be easily performed at home using a pH meter and TDS meter, which are available for purchase online. The video demonstrates how to use these tools to check the quality of your drinking water.
