Municipal water is used as a source for approximately 25% of the bottled water sold in the United States. However most of this processed water has gone through significant processing such as reverse osmosis, deionization, activated carbon filtration and other treatments. Often it is packaged as "purified" or "drinking water". If the water has not been substantially altered, then it must state on the label that the water comes from a municipal water source. 1, record 5, English, - processed%20water

Performance de lits mixtes turbules(LMT) [...] Étape no 4 : étude de l'ensemencement du basalte sur eau décantée primaire. Les essais se sont déroulés avec une charge de 130 kg de basalte au m³. Le passage d’un temps de séjour de 1, 5 h à 1 heure montre une dégradation de la DCO. La charge volumique azotée nitrifiée est de l'ordre de 1 kg de N/m³. j. 90% des grains sont colonisés très fortement au bout de 50 jours. Conclusion. Ces premiers essais ont permis de montrer que le procédé LMT constitue, sous réserve de quelques mises au point technologiques, un procédé viable. L'intérêt réside dans les performances élevées(conversion élevée en carbone et azote).
