Municipal Water Supply
Municipal Water Treatment Plant
Tap water (running water, city water, municipal water, etc.) is water supplied to a tap (valve).
Its uses include drinking, washing, cooking, and the flushing of toilets even as process water of
industries using.
Tap water is often culturally assumed to be potable water (drinking water), especially in
developed countries. Usually it is potable, although water quality problems are not rare.
Household water purification methods such as water filters, boiling, or distillation can be used
when the potability is doubted.
The municipal water treatment plant involved in providing clean water to homes, businesses,
and public buildings is a major subfield of sanitary engineering. Calling a water supply "tap water"
distinguishes it from the other main types of fresh water which may be available; these include
water from rainwater-collecting cisterns, water from village pumps or town pumps, or water
carried from streams, rivers, or lakes (whose potability may vary).
To construct a municipal water treatment plant need planning, design, manufacturing, engineering
and installation. For more information, please contact us.
