Why You Should Learn How To Purify Water

• 1 Gallon of Water weighs 8.4 Pounds

Most water is salt water. This system can remove
salt from water.
How Much Water Do You Need – At Rest

• (your age) / 2.2 x 35 / 28.3

• For example - 45/2.2 x
35/28.3 = 122.4 ounces.
That’s about 1 gallon (128
ounces)
How Much Water You Need While Bugging Out

• 122.4 ounces (at

rest) x Minutes of
Exercise / 30 x
12= Needs
• For Example
• 122.4 + (4 hour
walk) 240 minutes
/30 x 12 = 218.4
• Nearly 2 Gallons of
water.
How Much Water You Need

• After 8 hours of bugging out you will need about 4

gallons of water weighing 33.6 pounds.
• Water is too heavy to carry in large amounts during
a Bug out situation. It will need to be gathered and
purified in route.
• Planning water use for 6 weeks to 3 month will
require a very large amount of storage at your BOL.
• You must have a water source at you BOL.
Most Water is used and Polluted by

Industry and Agriculture

We need a system that can remove chemicals
(VOC’s, heavy metals, Organic and Inorganic)
Nuclear Accidents

• We will have and

do now have
radioactive
particles in Water.
Methods - What They Can’t Do!

Water treatment Activated

Reverse Osmosis Distillation Sunlight
System Carbon Filter

Microbiological Partial No Yes Yes

Inorganics Partial Partial Yes No The most
Organics Yes Partial Partial No effective
Heavy Metals No Partial Yes No method
Radioactivity No Partial Yes No is distill
and filter.
The Water Purification Steps

• Clean water containers.

• Filter with Cloth (Removes large particles).
• Open Air Boiling (Voc’s, germs, and other chemicals)
• Distillation – (Heavy metals, Nukes, and Inorganics)
• Activated Charcoal Filter - (Organics)
• Testing the water
1. Clean Water Containers

• Soap and water.

• Even sunshine can clean containers.
2. Filter Water With a Clean Cloth

•A cloth filter
will remove
some of the
larger
particles in
the water.
2a.What if You Can’t Boil Water

• When boiling off water is not possible in an emergency situation,

you can disinfect your drinking water with Clorox® Regular-Bleach
as follows:
• 1. Remove suspended particles by filtering or letting particles settle
to the bottom.
• 2. Pour off clear water into a clean container.
• 3. Add 8 drops of Clorox® Regular-Bleach (not scented or Clorox®
Plus® bleaches) to one gallon of water (2 drops to 1 quart). For
cloudy water, use 16 drops per gallon of water (4 drops to 1 quart).
• 4. Allow the treated water to stand for 30 minutes. Water should
have a slight bleach odor. If not, repeat and wait another 15
minutes. The treated water can then be made palatable by pouring
it between clean containers several times.
2a. WARNING

•Clorox® Regular-Bleach will not kill all

infectious lifeforms or removes
chemicals. But it is better than
drinking completely contaminated
water.
•Survival Tip: Keep a small sealed
plastic bottle of bleach in your BOB.
2b Sunlight Water Disinfection

As an alternative to chemicals you can use sunlight to disinfect your water

Using this method

skip steps 3 and 4,
but perfom steps 5-7

Warning some chemicals

and Inorganics may
remain in this water.

 3. Open Air Boil Water

• WARNING: Do not
attempt to boil or distill
contaminated water
indoors. It could release
Toxic Chemicals into the
air.
3. Open Air Boil Water

• Boil and distill contaminated water outdoors only.

3. Open Air Boil Water

• Boil water at high heat

for at least 5 minutes.
• VOC’s are chemicals that
have lower boiling points
than water. When water
is being boiled, if VOC’s
are present, they will
vaporize and rise up
with the steam as a gas.
3. Open Air Boil Water

• After 5 minutes of
high boil reduce the
boiling water
temperature to 212o
F (1000 C).
• You will need a
thermometer.
4. Distill Water

• Make Your own

Water Distiller.
• Caution Do not
use for cooking.

Do not get a textured Pound Cake

Pan as you want a tight seal.

The bottom pot must be a

smaller diameter than pound
cake pan.
4. Distill Water

• Once temperature reaches

212o F (1000 C). Place the
pound cake pan and lid on
the cooking pot. Wait for
the pound cake pan to fill
then pour into a 2nd clean
container.
• Replace and continue
distilling.
4. Distill Water

• WARNNG
• Do not drink this water yet!
• It may still contain
chemicals;
• Boiling water alone may
concentrate dangerous
chemicals.
4. Distill Water

• WARNING
• Don’t let water boil out
completely. Leave at
least 1 inch of water on
the bottom.
• Do not use – It may
contain chemicals with a
higher boiling point than
Q
water.

4. Distill Water

• When the 2nd container is

full high boil it again for 10
minutes.
• This should remove any
remaining chemicals.
• Let cool - then perform next
step

5. Filter Water with Activated Charcoal

You can use

Brita, or Zero
Water filters or
you can make
your own.
 5. Activated Carbon Filter

• Fish aquarium carbon is

highly recommended.
• Or you can make your
own charcoal from
untreated or natural
wood.
WARNING - Do Not Use Store Bought Wood
 5. Filter Water with Activated Charcoal
• WARNING - This filter
method may still contain
harmful bacteria that
this filter did not
remove.
• Do Sunlight disinfection
or boil again.
 5. Home Made Heavy Duty Water Filter

• WARNING -
This filter
method may
still contain
harmful
bacteria that
this filter did
not remove.
• Do Sunlight
disinfection.
6. Test Water with a

Fish Aquarium
Water Test Kit
Or

A water
quality
testing pen
that can
calibrated.
7. Repeat

If the water fails the test –

repeat the steps 4-7 using
the same water.

For severely contaminated

water you can repeat the
process as many times as
you needed.
Always store treated water in closed containers.
Purify Your Water Now

• You should be purifying water right now as no major city in

America can comply with the Clean Water Act.
• The Associated Press has done a study, and they're
reporting today that all kinds of chemicals are found in your
tap water, and this time we're not talking about lead,
mercury, pesticides, synthetic hormones, or anything like
that. Today we're talking about pharmaceuticals in your
water. (This article is a transcript of the audio program
