“Kuneseluleko samanzi abilayo eduze kwami ​​— kusho ukuthini lokho? Yini okufanele ngiyenze!?"

Ukubona iseluleko samanzi abilayo ku-inthanethi noma ukuzwa ngaso emsakazweni kungabangela ukwethuka kungazelelwe. Imaphi amakhemikhali ayingozi noma amagciwane acashe emanzini akho? Funda izinyathelo ezifanele ongazithatha lapho izinga lamanzi lisengozini endaweni yakini ukuze wena nomndeni wakho nikwazi ukupheka, ukuhlanza, ukugeza, nokuphuza amanzi ngokuphepha.

Siyini Iseluleko Samanzi Abilayo?

Iseluleko samanzi abilayo sikhishwa i-ejensi yangakini elawula amanzi lapho ukungcola okungaba yingozi empilweni yomuntu kungaba khona emanzini okuphuza omphakathi. Kunezinhlobo ezimbili eziyisisekelo zezeluleko:

• Izeluleko zokuqapha zamanzi abilayo zikhishwa uma kwenzeka lokhoangakwazingcolisa amanzi. Kunconywa ukubilisa amanzi uma kungenzeka.
• Izeluleko zamanzi abilayo ayimpoqo zikhishwa lapho ukungcola sekubonakale kahle emanzini. Ukwehluleka ukubilisa amanzi akho ngokwanele ngaphambi kokuthi uwaphuze kungaholela ezinkingeni ezinkulu zempilo.

Izeluleko zamanzi abilayo zivame ukubangelwa ukwehla komfutho wamanzi kulo lonke uhlelo lwamanzi. Ukwelashwa kwamanzi okusebenzayo kuncike ekucindezelweni okuphezulu kwamanzi ukuze kuhlakazwe amakhemikhali afana ne-chlorine nama-chloramine kuyo yonke imizila yamanzi yomphakathi. Ukwehla kwengcindezi kungabangela ukungcola okuhlukahlukene ukuthi kungene emanzini.

Izimbangela ezintathu eziyinhloko zezeluleko zamanzi abilayo yilezi:

• Amakhefu amakhulu noma avuzayo
• Ukungcoliswa kwamagciwane
• Umfutho wamanzi ophansi

Izeluleko eziningi zamanzi abilayo zizofaka isizathu esiqondile sokuthi kungani iseluleko sikhishwe.

Ungawabilisa Kanjani Amanzi Okuphuza

Uma ikhaya lakho lisendaweni ethintekile, yini ngempela okufanele uyenze ukuze uhlanze amanzi akho?

• Landela imiyalelo efakwe eselulekweni samanzi abilayo. Ngokujwayelekile kufanele ubilise wonke amanzi ohlose ukuwasebenzisa okungenani umzuzu owodwa.

• Gcina amanzi endaweni eyomile ukuze ulungiselele izeluleko zamanzi abilayo uma zivamile endaweni yangakini. Kuye ngokuthi ufuna ukugwema isikhathi esingakanani ukugwema ukuhlupheka kwamanzi abilayo esitolo ilitha elilodwa lamanzi ngomuntu ngamunye ngosuku. Shintsha amanzi agciniwe njalo ezinyangeni eziyisithupha.

Gwema Ukungcola Okuvamile Ngokuhlunga Amanzi

I-Bipartisan Policy Centre iveza ukuthi izeluleko zamanzi abilayo ziya zivame kakhulu njengoba ingqalasizinda yamanzi yesizwe sakithi iguga futhi ibhidlika. Njengoba izinga lezeluleko zamanzi abilayo liqhubeka nokukhuphuka imiphakathi iba nomthelela omubi futhi izinsiza ezifana nezikole, izibhedlela, nezindawo zokukhosela abangenamakhaya ziyavivinywa.

Amanzi abilayo ayisixazululo esinconyiwe ngoba ayasebenza ekwehliseni ukungcola okuthile futhi inqubo ingenziwa ezindlini eziningi. Kodwa-ke, izinhlelo zesimanje zokuhlunga amanzi zingasusa inqwaba yokungcola emanzini asekhaya lakho, ngisho noma kwenzeka kuba neseluleko samanzi abilayo.

Kungani ulinda kuze kube yilapho amanzi akho engcolile? Ukufaka i-Ultraviolet Reverse Osmosis System kuyindlela elula yokuphila ngaphandle kokungcola. Inhlanganisela yokuhlunga okunamandla kwe-osmosis okuhlanekezela kanye nokuvalwa kwe-ultraviolet iletha amazinga okususwa afika kwangu-99% okungcolisa okungaphezu kwe-100, okuhlanganisa amagciwane avamile, amagciwane, kanye namagciwane abangela izeluleko zamanzi abilayo.

Nikeza umndeni wakho ukuthula kwengqondo ngesistimu yokuhlunga amanzi eshaya kamnandi futhi elula ukuyinakekela. Kuyisixazululo esikhulu sokugwema izeluleko zamanzi abilayo ezishubisayo nezethusayo. Unemibuzo? Xhumana nelungu lethimba lethu lesevisi yamakhasimende.
