== == Yes you can. You have to design the treatment for the pollutant present. Solids can be removed by settling or a filter, inorganics by precipitation or other chemical reactions and organics by carbon filtration or biological treatment. Bacteria and viruses can be removed by chlorination, salt by reverse osmosis or distillation, odours by aeration, and oils by gravity separation.

∙ 10y agoIt is always possible to purify water. Water can be distilled. Of course, in the case of contaminated ground water, you have to get it out of the ground first. To purify it while it is still in the ground is difficult or impossible, depending upon the type of contamination, but there are some ecological systems which can help to purify water. Wetlands are good for that purpose. But there are limits to the types of contamination which they can remedy.
