The new version of "Hygienic Standards for Drinking Water" will be released, and the drinking water monitoring industry has a promising future

According to surveys by world organizations, in developing countries, 80% of various diseases are spread by drinking unhygienic water. Drinking unhygienic water kills at least 20 million people every year. Death, therefore, drinking water pollution is called "the world's number one killer".

Drinking water safety has always been the focus of social attention. my country has launched a national rural drinking water monitoring network in 1992, and began to establish a national urban drinking water monitoring network in 2007. At present, my country's urban and rural drinking water monitoring has covered more than 300 prefectures and cities, more than 2,800 districts and counties, and more than 95% of towns and cities in 31 provinces across the country.

As the country continues to attach importance to drinking water safety, in March 2018, the National Health Commission and relevant ministries and commissions launched a new round of revision of the "Drinking Water Hygienic Standards". The new version of "Drinking Water Hygienic Standards" is expected to be released in 2020. The new standards will incorporate indicators of health hazards into the standards and introduce new inspection methods.

In recent years, with the continuous improvement of drinking water safety requirements, more and more online instruments and equipment have been applied to drinking water quality supervision. Online monitoring of drinking water quality can, on the one hand, provide early warning of possible water quality exceedances and prevent unqualified tap water from entering households; on the other hand, a large amount of water quality data from pipe networks can also support water plants in optimizing water treatment processes and pipe network water delivery. Scheduling decisions.

In water plants, online turbidity analyzers of various ranges, residual chlorine/total chlorine analyzers, pH analyzers, alkalinity analyzers, and swimming current analysis Instruments are widely used and participate in the process control of automatic dosing, chlorination and other processes in water plants. The application of these online water quality analyzers has greatly improved the level of automated operation of tap water. , which greatly ensures the safety and reliability of tap water quality at the factory.

The recently announced "Healthy China Action (2019-2030)" requires increasing investment, management and maintenance of drinking water engineering facilities. By 2022 and 2030, the quality of drinking water for residents will be improved. The standard compliance situation has improved significantly and continues to improve.

Ensuring the safety of drinking water is a long-term task. As the country continues to pay more attention to drinking water safety, investment in drinking water quality monitoring instruments and equipment will continue to increase, and the drinking water monitoring industry will usher in more challenges.room for growth.

In addition, with the introduction of new standards and the development of various high and new technologies such as big data and the Internet of Things, online water quality analysis instruments and their application technology will receive greater attention. develop.
