Ukuthola amanzi okuphuza ngenkathi usohambweni kungaba umsebenzi onzima, ikakhulukazi ezindaweni lapho amanzi kampompi engaphephile noma engatholakali khona. Kodwa esikhundleni sokuthenga amanzi asemabhodleleni, okubhebhethekisa inkinga yomhlaba wonke yokungcoliswa kwepulasitiki, kunezindlela ezimbalwa zokuphuza amanzi aphephile ongazisebenzisa ukuze zikusize noma ngabe ukuphi.
Thatha ibhodlela lokuhlunga amanzi uhambe nalo
Abahambi abafuna indlela yokuthenga isitolo esisodwa kufanele bacabangele ukusebenzisa isihlungi samanzi esiphathwayo kanye nebhodlela lokuhlanza elinenhlanganisela yokuhlunga kanye nesitsha esenza kube lula ukuhlanzwa, ukuthwala nokuphuza amanzi ekuhambeni.
Uhlobo lwe-LifeStraw lusebenzisa ulwelwesi lwefayibha engenalutho kanye nekhepisi lamalahle elicushiwe ukuze kususwe amagciwane, izimuncagazi nama-microplastics, kanye nokuqeda iphunga nokunambitha. Futhi uhlobo lwe-GRAYL luthatha esinye isinyathelo ekusetshenzisweni kwamanzi aphephile ngokwakha ukuvikelwa kwegciwane kuzihlungi zalo.
Akuwona wonke amabhodlela okuhlunga aklanywe ngendlela efanayo: amanye angadakwa ngokumuncwa, amanye ngokucindezela; amanye anikeza isivikelo emagciwaneni ahlukahlukene, kuyilapho amanye awanikezeli. Ubude bempilo yokuhlunga buhluka kakhulu, futhi lezi zihlungi azitholakali yonke indawo, ngakho-ke kufanelekile ukucabangela ukuzithenga kusengaphambili. Ungakhohlwa ukufunda ngokucophelela incazelo yomkhiqizo othengiwe kanye nemiyalelo!
Ukucekelwa phansi kwe-DNA eyingozi
Kungenzeka ukuthi usuwasebenzisile kakade amanzi ahlanzekile e-ultraviolet, njengoba izinkampani zamanzi asemabhodleleni nezindawo zokuhlanza amanzi angcolile zikamasipala zivame ukusebenzisa le ndlela. Ngemikhiqizo emisha engasindi efana ne-Steripen ne-Larq Bottle, abahambi bangasebenzisa ubuchwepheshe obufanayo lapho usohambeni.
Ngezinga elithile, ukukhanya kwe-ultraviolet kubhubhisa i-DNA yamagciwane, i-protozoa namagciwane. Ngokuthinta inkinobho, isihlanzi se-Steripen sibhoboza amanzi ngemisebe ye-ultraviolet ebhubhisa amagciwane namagciwane angaphezu kuka-99% emizuzwini embalwa.
Nakuba ukukhanya kwe-ultraviolet kungahlanza amanzi ezinto ezingafuneki, akuhlungi i-sediment, izinsimbi ezinzima nezinye izinhlayiya, ngakho-ke kungcono ukusebenzisa amadivaysi e-ultraviolet ngokuhambisana nesihlungi.
Isihlungi esiphathekayo esihlangene somuntu siqu
Lena inketho enhle uma ukhetha isistimu yokuhlunga ehlangene ngokwanele ukuhamba nawe futhi eguquguqukayo ngokwanele ukuze wenze ngokwezifiso ukuze ihambisane nezidingo zakho.
Isihlungi esikhiphekayo esivela kumikhiqizo efana ne-LifeStraw Flex ne-Sawyer Mini singasetshenziswa njengotshani obuphuzwayo ngokuqondile emthonjeni wamanzi noma sihlanganiswe nesikhwama se-hydration. Zombili lezi zinhlelo zisebenzisa i-fiber membrane engenalutho, kodwa i-Flex nayo ine-capsule ye-carbon esebenzayo ehlanganisiwe ukuze ibambe amakhemikhali nezinsimbi ezisindayo. Kodwa-ke, isihlungi se-Flex sidinga ukushintshwa ngemva kokuhlanza cishe amalitha angu-25 amanzi - ngokushesha kakhulu kune-Sawyer, enempilo engamalitha ayi-100.
Ukuhlanzwa ngokufaka ugesi
Izihambi ezifuna ukukhanya nokunethezeka zingase futhi zicabange ukusebenzisa idivayisi yokwelapha amanzi nge-electrolytic. Idivayisi enjalo ngeke ithathe isikhala esiningi, kodwa izokusebenzela kahle. Le gajethi ephathekayo ifaka ugesi isisombululo sikasawoti - esilungiselelwa kalula noma kuphi kusuka kusawoti kanye namanzi - ukwakha isibulala-magciwane ongasingeza emanzini (kufika kumalitha angama-20 ngesikhathi) ukuze ubulale cishe wonke amagciwane.
Ngokungafani nobuchwepheshe bokuhlanza amanzi e-ultraviolet, lolu hlobo lwedivayisi yokuhlanza lungaphatha amanzi aguqubele. Idivayisi yakhelwe ukuthi ihlale isikhathi eside futhi iyashajwa - isibonelo, i-Potable Aqua PURE ingahlanza cishe amalitha angu-60 amanzi ngaphambi kokuba idinge ukushintsha ezinye izakhi, futhi ibhethri layo lingashajwa nge-USB. Uma ukhathazekile ngokunambitheka noma ukungezwani namakhemikhali, qaphela ukuthi lesi sibulala-magciwane sishiya izakhi ze-chlorine emanzini.
Ukusebenza kwamakhemikhali
Ukusebenzisa amaphilisi e-chlorine ukuhlanza amanzi kungase kungaphephile, futhi ukusetshenziswa kwamaphilisi e-iodine kuye kwaxhunyaniswa nezinkinga zempilo eziningana. Ngaphezu kwalokho, bobabili banikeza amanzi iphunga elimnandi nokunambitha. Enye indlela i-sodium dichloroisocyanurate (NaDCC): iyathengeka, kulula ukuyisebenzisa, futhi ihlanza amanzi ngemiphumela efanayo neye-chlorine, kodwa ngezingozi ezimbalwa.
Amaphilisi okuhlanza e-NaDCC (njengophawu lwe-Aquatabs) angasetshenziswa ngamanzi ahlanzekile ukuze akhiphe i-hypochlorous acid, enciphisa amagciwane amaningi futhi enze amanzi aphuzwe cishe emizuzwini engama-30. Qaphela ukuthi le ndlela ayisusi izinhlayiya kanye nokungcola okufana nezibulala-zinambuzane. Uma uphatha amanzi anamafu, kungcono ukuwahlunga ngaphambi kokuncibilikisa amaphilisi kuwo. Ungakhohlwa ukufunda imiyalelo!
Yabelana futhi uhole ngesibonelo
Amanzi ahlungiwe angatholakala mahhala uma wazi ukuthi ubheke kuphi. Izinhlelo zokusebenza ezifana ne-RefillMyBottle ne-Tap zingakutshela indawo yeziteshi zokugcwalisa amanzi ongazisebenzisa ngenkathi usohambeni.
Ukusebenzisa amadivaysi okuhlunga amanzi nokuhlanza kuzokusiza ukuthi uhambe isikhathi esingenamkhawulo ngaphandle kokusebenzisa amabhodlela epulasitiki.
Futhi kwesinye isikhathi kwanele ukucela abantu noma izikhungo ohlangana nazo ukuthi zihlanganyele amanzi endleleni. Lapho abahambi becela kakhulu izindawo zokudlela namahhotela ukuthi baphinde bagcwalise amabhodlela abo asebenziseka kabusha ngamanzi ahlanzekile, abavami ukunqatshelwa - futhi kusetshenziswa ipulasitiki elincane elingasetshenziswa kanye.
