Abstract

Pollution of the earth is widely considered a problem by scientist and politicians. You will be reading in large part about pollution of our groundwater and the (rather dire) consequences, if things continue on the tracks, we are currently following. In this paper, we explore basic concepts of water rotation in general, and get a closer look at the details about the Danish groundwater reserve, and how it functions, as well as the more recent increase in issues troublesome to the Danish groundwater. We went with an approach, that mostly involved gathering data to put the issue into perspective, and made a larger explanatory work, which is boiled down from several highly trustworthy sources, and turned out to touch all bases relevant to our problem statement. Later work effort went into the creating a water cleansing technique based on microbiology, which effectively, if not so efficiently, removes nitrates from water supplies. In general, our product turned out to have a really spicy cost for what it did, but does imply some serious possibilities for improvement in the future, and could likely be expanded to take care of more than simply nitrate, in which case it would start to be attractive. This is, however, simply speculation, and microbiology may prove to be as impractical for everything else in drinking water purification, as it was for our product.
