Part 2: What Is In the Water

In our previous episode, we discovered how aging infrastructure has contributed to a growing concern of the general public's surrounding water quality. In this episode, we address those concerns head on by diving into the science behind water treatment to answer several questions about what exactly is in the water.

Again, we go back in time to understand how water quality was handled historically and how contemporary engineers and scientists are now hard at work mitigating many factors that make it challenging to make our water safe today. Part of that challenge is simply helping citizens better understand how water treatment works and combatting widespread misinformation.
