Warm water is okay, but DO NOT use hot water!!


Can deionized and demineralized water be used to top up batteries?

Use only distilled water.


Can you use deionized water in tattooing instead of distilled?

Yes. Essentialy deionized and distilled water are the same because distilled water is just water that has all ions taken out and therefore wont carry and electrical charge.

Is rain water deionized?

in terms of the level of purity both are very high and similar. The deionized water has mineral ions removed and distilled water is distilled at high temperatures leaving most contaminants behind. Deionized water doesn't remove bacteria and viruses significantly.


What are the advantages of using deionized water?

Deionized water can be created from a mixed bed deionizer. These are sometimes rechargable beds obtained from a supply company like Culligan. They can also be recharged on site using sulfuric acid and sodium hydroxide. These are cation-anion exchange systems. These systems were designed primarily for use where ultra-pure water was needed. Applications include pharmaceutical plants, medical facilities, dialysis centers, and other industrial applications where electronics are involved. In electronic applications the deionized water has no electrical conductuance (it's an insulator) so it can be used to indirectly cool electrical circuits without risk of causing a short. There are some applications for deionized water in boiler work as well. Treated water has no minerals for scale formation and has very low dissolved gasses. The disadvantage of deionized water is that it can be corrosive to some metals. Since it is deionized, it does not conduct--giving it the potential to allow galvanic corrosion in piping made of conducting metals. Additionally, switching from tap to DI water in a piping system can cause removal of scale--in older piping systems, that can cause the pipe to fail because the scale might be the only thing keeping it together. Stainless Steel or other piping with a passive oxide layer will be OK. In home use it has seen increasing application for whole house water supplys to remove all taste and odor. It also removes toxins and oxidants and reducing agents. The water will have no taste and will not be a great thirst quencher. There are some medical benefits claimed to be associated with deionized water which "chelate" toxins and other "bad" things from the body. Another advantage of deionized water which can be achieved with a softener is a reduction of the use of soap for clothes washing and dish washing. I would not recommend deionized water for whole house use. Possibly specifically for certain applications but not the whole house.


What methods should be used to clean glassware?

The proper method that should be used to clean glassware is to rinse it between three to four times with deionized water. If it requires scrubbing then use hot soapy water and a brush to clean and then rinse with water before rinsing again with deionized water.

Why natural and tap water not use for dilution media in BOD test?

Natural water is acidic and tap water can contain some toxic material but we require deionized water and water free from any toxic material That's why we don't use both of these waters
