Why is potable water important in South African industries?

Potable water is that which satisfies certain quality requirements established by regulatory agencies and is suitable for human consumption. All facets of human life, including those of industrial facilities and businesses, depend on having access to clean water that is free from impurities and microbes. 

High-quality water is often needed in industrial processes for a variety of reasons. Firstly, for sanitation and human consumption, potable water is both a legal and fundamental human right for employees. Businesses have a responsibility to give workers access to safe drinking water.

Secondly, in food and beverage production, potable water is needed to ensure the safety and quality of the final product. It must be free from contaminants and bacteria that could spoil batches of food and drinks and put consumers at risk.

Next, in many manufacturing processes, clean water is essential at many levels of production. From temperature control to equipment washing, potable water is necessary in industrial facilities. These are just a few examples of why companies need to install potable water systems at their premises.

Standards for potable water

The South African National Standard (SANS) 241:2015 establishes the requirements for drinking water quality in South Africa. The permitted levels of several pollutants, such as chemicals, minerals, and bacteria in the water are specified in this standard. It is a regulatory requirement that businesses meet these standards for potable water.

To accommodate the wide range of demands of different clients, Blue Reef provides an extensive array of potable water systems and services. Our systems are made to ensure that untreated water sources, like municipal dams or groundwater, meet the strict requirements needed to become potable water.

Blue Reef can conduct laboratory analyses to find any pollutants in your water source. We also provide system engineering and design to suit your specific requirements. One of the major systems we offer is reverse osmosis (RO) which efficiently filters out dissolved solids and other contaminants from water. These can be paired with filtration systems to minimise suspended particles and remove contaminants from drinking water. 

We also provide UV or chlorine disinfection systems to get rid of dangerous pathogens. What’s more, to guarantee the constant quality of potable water, we offer innovative systems for monitoring and control. These keep your potable water systems operating smoothly and effectively.
