What is Water ?

Water is a chemical bond consisting of 2 hydrogen and 1 oxygen atom (H2O), it can be either liquid or solid gas. Water is considered pure to consist only H2O, but in reality nature never has been such pure water, even though rainwater.

What is Hygiene Water ?

Hygiene water is defined as water meets the requirements for irrigation, for drinking water treatment and water sanitation. The requirements are reviewed from requirements of chemical, physical and biological content. Or qualify as follows:

• Generally: Safe and healthy water for humans consume.
• Physically: Colorless, odorless, tasteless.
• Chemically:
  - PH neutral (not acid / base)
  - Does not contain toxic and harmful heavy metals.
  - Parameters such as BOD, COD, DO, TS, TSS and conductivity meet local government rules.

The Hygiene Water Parameters

Hardness is an indication of water ability to be a foam while mixture with a soap. In low-density, the water able to f foam when mixed with soap, whereas in high-density water will not form foam. The hardness is some important things for aquarium because it is one of water indicators  quality required for the fish. Not all fish could live in same hardness value. Each fish requires a precondition of hardness value on a particular interval for its life. In addition, hardness is an important clue in a relation to attempts of manipulate pH values.

Generally alkalinity shows the concentrations of bases or neutralize materials acidity in water. Specifically, alkalinity is often referred as quantity of buffering indication capacity of bicarbonate ions, certain samples of carbonate and hydroxide ions water. These three ions will be react with hydrogen to decrease acidity and increase pH. Alkalinity usually expressed in units of ppm (mg/l) of calcium carbonate (CaCO3). Water contain calcium carbonate more than 100 ppm is called as alkaline, the water content less than 100 ppm is referred as a soft or moderate alkalinity levels. Generally a good environment water for life is above 20 ppm of alkalinity value.

Drinking Water

Drinking water is the water goes through some process that meet of health requirements and can be directly to drink. Safe drinking water is meets the requirements of chemical physical, microbiological, and radioactive contained in additional parameters.

Conclusion

---

Hygiene water is healthy water used for human activities and free from the germs can cause disease, free of chemicals substance that can contaminate hygiene water. Water is an absolute substance for living creature and cleanliness water is main requirement for health assurance.
