NI Water Hosts 'Marvel Of Cleaning Water' Event

NI Water has hosted a informative event as part of this year's NI Science Festival .

The 'Marvel of Cleaning Water' event took place at Silent Valley, where scientists, environmentalists and apprentices were on hand to showcase the many hidden elements that go into cleaning water. 

Anna Killen, NI Water's Outreach and Learning Officer commented: "The NI Science Festival is aimed at celebrating the science of you, the universe and everything in between. Here at NI Water, we wanted to wow our customers with the science behind cleaning water and the importance of infrastructure in bringing clean, safe drinking water to the tap. We were delighted so many visitors came along to enjoy live demonstrations explaining the 'The Marvel of Cleaning Water'.


"The Mourne Wall is 100 years old, so we were delighted to showcase the importance of modern science against a backdrop of the importance of engineering and science a hundred years ago, when planning began to provide a reservoir in the Mountains of Mourne."
