#CleanWater: Brought to You by Chemistry


ACC celebrates #WorldWaterDay and the White House Water Summit by releasing a video highlighting the many ways chemistry keeps water flowing—from source to tap.


Wastewater may be defined as the flow of used water from a community. It includes all that drains from the kitchen sink, tub, toilet, shower and laundry, and from various industrial and commercial sources. Wastewater treatment, including the wide use of chlorine disinfectants, is an important public health measure that helps protect us from exposure to harmful germs after treated, used water is returned to waterways.
