Contaminated water is the most common cause of illness to mankind. Around 60% of diseases caused to humans are water-borne with children below 5 years more susceptible. One of the most usual ways water getting contaminated is through water storage tanks - the cleaning of which is either neglected or inappropriate means like the services of a local plumber or sweeper are engaged.
Though Water Purifiers form an integral part in every home, they are not maintained in effective working condition due to regular maintenance and cleaning of filters. A clean water source enhances the life of the components of water purifiers, making them more effective. In addition to drinking, water is used for other household chores like cooking, washing & bathing. If the input water is not clean, we can still be exposed to water borne diseases.
Large quantities of clean water will be required to clean and treat storage tanks and tankers before they can be used to store water.
The tank must be cleaned to ensure that water stored in the tank does not become contaminated by dirt or traces of the substance the tank previously held. This can be achieved by following the three steps below:
Open the outlet valve/tap and drain out any remaining liquid. Collect the liquids so that they can be safely disposed of. Most tankers have their outlet valve at the back, so park it on a slope so that all the liquids can be discharged
Permanent storage tanks are usually fitted with a washout valve that draws water from the base. Use this for emptying rather than the normal outlet valve. The process of emptying the remaining liquids from portable tanks will depend on the shape and design of the tank. Some can be tipped on their side and others dismantled.
Use a mixture of detergent and water (household laundry soap powder will do) to clean all internal surfaces of the tank. This can be done with a stiff brush or a high pressure jet. If the tank has contained volatile substances such as oil or organic liquids such as milk, try not to enter the tank as the gases given off by the liquids could be dangerous. (See page 4 for health and safety advice.) Attaching the brush to a long pole may make it possible to clean the tank without entering it. Take special care to clean corners and joints so that no small amounts of the original liquid remain. Even minute amounts of some liquids can give the water a bad taste and people will refuse to drink it.
Leave the outlet valve open whilst cleaning and collect the waste liquid for safe disposal.
This is most easily done with a high pressure hose pipe or water jet but if they are not available the tank can be filled with water and left to stand for a few hours. Drain all the water from the tank and collect for safe disposal as before. Continue flushing the tank until there are no longer traces of detergent in the water.
