WORLD'S RESERVES OF FRESH WATER

(Whether there will be a world water crisis by 2025-2030)

G.Novitsky, R.H.Khamizov,

Chapter 8.3. Water and Waste water

treatment, the UNESCO

Encyclopedia, V.2, 2002г, Oxford,

2005, Moscow

97.5 % of all stocks of water on the planet - salty waters of the seas and oceans.

Fresh water - only 2.5 % of world's reserves.

From it are:

75 % of fresh water "frozen" in mountain glaciers and polar

caps

24 % - underground (artesian) waters

0.5 % - “dispersed" in soil in the form of moisture

0.01 % of world's reserves of fresh water - surface water

sources - rivers and lakes

Today already 55 % of an accessible drain of surface fresh waters are used; by 2030 world

requirements for fresh water will increase by 60 %.

Technogenic pollution and epidemics limit stocks of surface waters.

Underground waters – the most significant reserve for survival of mankind.

• 1,1 billion people on the Earth are deprived access to pure water

ACCORDING to the United Nations in 2007

• 2,6 billion people are obliged to use partially polluted water

• 1,8 million children die every year as a result of shortage of table

water

• is every second case of disease in the world caused by the pathogenic

bacteria living in water


1. The small market

The industry of sales of table water is one of the most fast-growing in the world. There are over 100

billion litres of potable water on sale, basically in plastic packaging. According to Fortune magazine,

profits in this branch already reach $1 trillion a year, 40 % of the profit of oil companies. Profit from

selling water already exceed the profit of pharmaceutical firms. The world "small" market of potable

water is shared between ten big corporations of which the largest ones are the French Vivendi

Universal and Suez groups – having over 200 million consumers in 150 countries.

2. The big market

On the agenda is the formation of "big" water market aiming at resolving problems of deficiency of

qualitative water on national scales. The American companies were going to carry out the project of

tanker deliveries to the Arabian countries of water from the Great Lakes. Today these plans have

stopped because of disputes with Canada. Russia accounts for a third of the world reserve of fresh

water, and therefore offers a huge potential for the “big” market.

Under forecasts of experts, profit in the new market will be much higher than in the market of hydro-

carbonic raw materials.

ARSENICS PROBLEM IN THE WORLD

WHO's activities on arsenic

In 1963 the standard was set as 0.05 mg/L. In 1984, this

was maintained as WHO's "Guideline Value“, and many

countries have set this as the national standard or as an

interim target.

According to the last edition of the WHO Guidelines for

Drinking-Water Quality (1993):

• Inorganic arsenic is a documented human carcinogen

• 0.01 mg/L was established as a provisional guideline

value for arsenic

Based on health criteria, the guideline value for arsenic

in drinking-water would be less than 0.01mg/L.

Natural arsenic pollution is a global phenomenon in 70 countries on all continents,

except for Antarctica. In recent decades about 140 million people worldwide have been exposed to

drinking water containing more than 10 μg/L of arsenic.

RESUME

• The technology for water preparation based on Natural Nano-sorption is developed and tested on industrial level.

• The license for mining of 50 Million tons of natural deposit of raw materials for Nano-sorbents is purchased Radiy

• Radiy has carried out all preparatory work related to best artesian water sources in Russian and former USSR Republics. Around 20 Artesian wells with high quality grade of water in different regions, including Mountain heights of North Caucasus is now in the property of Radiy

• All preparatory work including detailed engineering work of water distribution outlet/pavilion is carried out and the pilot Pavilion is constructed at full scale

• Radiy’s technology is very different from any concepts other water treatment companies provide. These are the general characteristics:

•1.) No Chlorine is needed to keep water fresh and safe

•2.) De-Salinisation of Sea Water is less energy intensive and our mineral accopmanies the usual reverse osmosis technology and by this makes it 50% more effective

•3.) Average production cost is about 40% lower than usual water treatment

•4.) added minerals make the water become a health supplement

•5.) Our SKOV material is designed to treat heavy arsenic pollutions in water at a very competitive cost which allows sources of water highly polluted to be treated. Sources which were impossible to be tapped previously because of high production costs now can be used.
