ORGANIC DESTRUCTION TECHNOLOGIES In olden times, farmers used to throw silver coins in water buckets to kill bacteria and other forms of organic pollutants. Silver was and is effective in killing certain types of bacteria. Today silver is still used to some extent to kill bacteria (primarily as part of a filtration device) but we have grown immensly in our ability to achieve direct organic destruction with better and lower cost technologies . The main organic destruction technologies today involve chlorinating the water or ultra-violet light bombardment. These technologies are low cost and simple to install and are usually used in addition to filtration devices which cannot filter organics. |
