A drinking water preparation is usually necessary to ensure that these water qualities meet the standards regarding mineral composition and hygienic conditions. These standards must be met both at the place of its preparation and after its long journey through the distribution networks at the taps of the final consumers.<\/p><p>As a core technology of Kurita, we offer embracing solutions for state-of-the-art drinking water production, including AI-driven technologies for preventing drinking water losses in the distribution network. For many decades, we have taken care of qualified products for all steps of drinking water production. We are starting from flocculants to remove suspended solids to antiscalants, which ensure the safe operation of membrane treatment plants to produce drinking water.<\/p><p>Preparing good-quality water in the waterworks is only one side of the coin. As also mentioned, the distribution networks must also be looked after.<\/p><p>These networks typically contain materials like plastics, different metals, or concrete. The corrosion of iron and other metals must be avoided, especially as corrosion by-products potentially contaminate the water. Besides the deteriorating drinking water quality, in the worst case, corrosion could also lead to the loss of valuable drinking water through leakages and pipe breaks.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-214460c4 elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"214460c4\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-5c804c39\" data-id=\"5c804c39\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-4519988f elementor-widget elementor-widget-heading\" data-id=\"4519988f\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"heading.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<h2 class=\"elementor-heading-title elementor-size-large\">The best drinking water treatment practices<\/h2>\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/section>\n\t\t\t\t<section class=\"elementor-section elementor-top-section elementor-element elementor-element-6ee88c0f elementor-section-boxed elementor-section-height-default elementor-section-height-default\" data-id=\"6ee88c0f\" data-element_type=\"section\" data-e-type=\"section\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-container elementor-column-gap-default\">\n\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-column elementor-col-100 elementor-top-column elementor-element elementor-element-3649ccad\" data-id=\"3649ccad\" data-element_type=\"column\" data-e-type=\"column\">\n\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-wrap elementor-element-populated\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-65256 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"65256\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p>Our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.kurita.eu\/en\/solutions\/metaqua\/\">Metaqua<span lang=\"EN-GB\" style=\"font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 107%; font-family: 'Calibri',sans-serif; mso-ascii-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-fareast-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-hansi-theme-font: minor-latin; mso-bidi-font-family: 'Times New Roman'; mso-bidi-theme-font: minor-bidi; mso-ansi-language: EN-GB; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;\">\u00ae<\/span><\/a><span style=\"color: var( --e-global-color-text ); font-family: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-family ), Sans-serif; font-size: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-size ); font-style: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-style ); font-weight: var( --e-global-typography-text-font-weight ); letter-spacing: var( --e-global-typography-text-letter-spacing ); text-transform: var( --e-global-typography-text-text-transform );\">\u00a0product line reliably protects the drinking water supply network from corrosion.
