Abstract:
Rapid demographic growth of the population has led to the fact, that the renewable water resources are not
renewable over time. Already, today there is a shortage of fresh water. Methods for purification and resource
saving technology of water is the only alternative directions in coming decades. Therefore, there is a great
need for the development of suitable, inexpensive and fast wastewater treatment and reuse or conservation
methods in this century. Various types of water treatment and recycling methods were discussed in terms of
their fundamentals, applications, costs, maintenance and suitability. In addition, a systematic approach to
water purification and recycling was presented, including their understanding, assessment and selection of
parameters. A quick guide on the selection of appropriate technologies for specific applications was
evaluated. The article discusses not only global issues related to solutions to the problem of water shortage,
but also the results of experime
ntal studies showing the feasibility of using a purification method using
coagulants.
