Water Analysis
Water Analysis
Earth is the "blue planet" because water covers almost 71% of its surface. A universal beverage and a liquid essential for sustenance, water is found almost everywhere on our planet in varying forms. The availability of water from different sources and its significance in the ecosystem make water testing crucial at an industrial and individual level.
Based on the water sample source as well as individual client needs, determined by end usage, the type of water testing or analysis required differs. Water analysis helps to ascertain the composition and purity of water, thereby classifying it as suitable or unsuitable for use. It involves measuring the quality of water based on physical, chemical and microbiological characteristics. Further, water testing needs to be done at regular intervals since the nature and composition of water can change over time.
Water analysis ranges from simple water testing processes, where a single component is analysed, to complex processes for multi-component analysis. Mineral water testing to determine whether it is potable involves separate analytical techniques as opposed to water for industrial use. Apart from input water sources, waste water from industries also undergoes analysis, to check for the presence of hazardous chemicals and prevent further pollution or damage to water or land bodies.
Why water testing matters
Water contamination and pollution is one of the leading causes of disease and death globally. According to a study in The Lancet, water pollution caused over 10 lakh deaths in 2015. About 100 crore of the global population fall ill annually due to unsafe water.
Damage to water bodies not only adversely affects the human population but is also detrimental for other ecological populations that lend balance to our sensitive ecosystem. Thus, water testing becomes critical from a health as well as an ecological perspective.
Taking these factors into consideration, Precise Analytics offers multiple tests for water samples using our well-equipped water testing labs and scientific expertise. The water analysis includes chemical as well as microbiological testing as per IS, IP, BP, USP, EP and other globally recognised standards. We also offer mineral water testing services at our water testing labs.
