Tidal Energy Towards Utilization of Potable Water from a Jetmatic Pump and Prime Water in the Philippines
Subject area: Science,Engineering and Technology · Area of research: Energy
Abstract
This research examined drinking water quality in Leyte and other Samar cities. It examined the physical, chemical, and microbiological aspects of drinking water sources. This study used one jetmatic pump per barangay. Five evaluators found no color, odor, or flavor in water from all three locations. Brgy. Brgy. Minuhang Barugo,leyte has a pH of 6.14, Brgy. All Sta. Rosa water samples are somewhat acidic with a pH of 6.3. Brgy temps. Brgy. Minuhang had the greatest temperature of 28.2?C and Brgy. Sta. Rosa's total dissolved solids (TDS) are 108mg/L, 39.7mg/L, and 156mg/L, respectively. Brgy Because it was a dumpsite, Sta. Rosa has the highest TDS of the three brgys, although it is still within the Philippine National Environmental Standards of Drinking Water. Three water samples meet the Philippine National Standard of Drinking Water (PNSDW) for Calcium, Chloride, DO, Iron, Manganese, Nitrite, and Potassium. E.coli was found in Brgys, Sta Rosa, and Abango water samples. Thus, none of the three barangay water samples are drinkable. Since all water sources are unsuitable for human consumption, LGUs must hold seminars/trainings on water filtration and treatment to protect everyone's safety. The relevant committee must routinely check potable water sources for health.
