Keeping drinking water potable and disease-free is crucial prior to human consumption. The Hach CEL Basic Drinking Water Laboratory Kit includes all of the necessary equipment for the most commonly tested parameters of drinking water. Convenient package sizes and easy to operate instruments provide professionals with the basic analytical capabilities to monitor water distribution quickly and easily. Stored in a hard-sided carrying case, the kit is designed to withstand harsh environments during field sampling. Rapid testing enables direct results to communicate to decision makers.
Water quality parameters that can be tested include: alkalinity, aluminum, ammonia (free), chlorine (free), chlorine (total), dissolved oxygen, fluoride, hardness, iron, monochloramine, nitrate, nitrite, pH, phosphorus, sulfate, and sulfide/hydrogen sulfide.

Assessing Cumulative Risk From Water Pollutants
New research from scientists at the Environmental Working Group (EWG) shows that an approach that assesses cumulative risk from water contaminants could save lives. EWG senior scientist Tasha Stoiber spoke with EM about how the team developed the innovative new approach . “Our organization has worked extensively on tap water over the years, and an updated version of our tap water database was just released in 2017,” explains Dr. Stoiber. “We've been thinking about new ways to analyze that data.” Right now, the risk from contaminants in water quality is assessed one at a time—but that really doesn't comport with reality.

Fracking operations get uncomfortably close to drinking water, Stanford scientists find
A study by researchers at Stanford University finds that fracking operations get closer to drinking water sources than typically thought, according to Grist. This means that oil and gas companies are likely searching for natural gas at shallower depths underground. Scientists looked at fracking activities near two geological formations in Wyoming for the investigation. And though they didn’t find current drinking water sources to be contaminated by fracking chemicals, they did find that some chemicals get uncomfortably close to freshwater aquifers. While fracking often occurs miles below the Earth’s surface, researchers noted that it sometimes happens just thousands of feet underground.

Energy production and drinking water demand could combine for water shortage by 2040
Researchers from Denmark and the U.S. have issued reports that spell trouble for the world’s future water needs, according to a release from Aarhus University. Drawing from three years of research, the reports state that competition between drinking water and energy demand will result in water scarcity for 30-40 percent of the world by 2020. If energy and water usage trends continue as projected, by 2040 the entire world will lack the water to simultaneously quench its thirst and meet energy demands. Electricity is the primary source of water consumption in most countries, because all power plants excepting wind and solar systems require water cooling cycles.
