Description: Sure, drinking toilet water *sounds* gross, but with the right cleaning methods we can turn the dirtiest water you can think of back into clean, safe, refreshing drinking water. In this video we’ll walk through how humans have cleaned water over centuries, and how we’ve managed to get so good at it that we can turn wastewater into a refreshing drink again! Toilet to tap is possible… it just needs a good rebrand! #earthday #waterfiltration #drinkingwater You might also like: You Don't Actually Know How Water Works: youtu.be/dlHxV0Hpt5I How Much Water Can Kill You?: youtu.be/TvcbIXvWl_k Can We Make Ocean Water Drinkable -- and Should We?: youtu.be/q16qpo99JEE Extracting Gold from Seawater: youtu.be/j5eomDz4Z0E Credits: Executive Producers: Hilary Hudson Producers: Elaine Seward Andrew Sobey Darren Weaver Writer/Host: George Zaidan Scientific Consultants: Michelle Boucher, PhD John Dorsey (LMU) Brianne Raccor, PhD Executive in Charge for PBS: Maribel Lopez Associate Director of Programming for PBS: Niki Walker Reactions is a production of the American Chemical Society. © 2022 American Chemical Society.
