Singapore Water

Singapore Water

Of one day, the total population in Singapore consumes 300 million US gallons of water (One U.S. gallon equals 3.785 x 10-3 cubic meter), of which water supplies came from 4 sources, Catchment, Imported, NEWater, and Desalinated water.

Catchment water
Catchment water is the water collected from rainfall across Singapore. The reservoirs have been located about half of the Singapore surface area. Moreover, there is a proposal for a huge reservoir to be built in 2009 at Marina Bay, which could lead the reservoirs area to be two-third of the total island area. Now, the weight of water consumption from catchment is accounted for 50 % of total consumption.

Imported Water
Apparently, water is worth invaluable in Singapore, as the island is insufficiently supplied by its own available resources. Consequently, external support is vital. Malaysia has been playing an important role in each and individual Singaporean’ lives, which is to give water support to Singapore. Nearly 50% of everyday water consumption is imported from Malaysia. Analyzing the weakness of Singapore, water has always been used as a threat to Singapore in any conflicts.

Desalinated Water
Due to the obvious weakness of Singapore, the government has been trying to push up any new water project as to increase her independency of water resources in the island. September 13, 2006, Singapore opened Asia’s largest desalinated plant in Tuas. This new plant will be able to supply 30 million US gallons, which equals 10% of the total consumption.

NEWater
The plant is to turn the used water into new usable water, as its name referred. 94% of its water is used to supply for industrial use, while another 6% will come to daily consumption. The process has gone through 4 stages to finalize NEWater product.

Stage 1 ( Microfiltration ) : The water pipe will trap the polluted particles like viruses , bacteria , etc and allow only the salts and organic molecules to go through the membrane.

Stage 2 ( Reverse Osmosis ) : This stage allows only as small as water molecules to go through .

Stage 3 ( UV purification ) : At this stage , the UV disinfection will make sure the water is 100% clean .

Stage 4 : Water is readjusted to have a neutral PH and minerals are added into the water .

Game & Life

Life is exactly like a game, but even more challenge than what it is in the game. In every minute , each of us has to find our way to get out of troubles. To day You have this problem , and tomorrow You will have another new problem, go on and on . Once the problems solved , doesn't mean that you are free , it always return back to hang around with you and you have to fight it again . Therefore , life requires consisitency , and alertness , otherwise we can be pulled down at anytime. In other words , if we fail to solve today's problem , tomorrow the new problem will add in to the existing one . So, everything ideally should be cleared as soon as you realize the problem....

Sinking of Japan

Sinking of Japan is one of the uprising popular movie recently.The story began with world scientist prediction that Japan will sink in less than 40 years time . However ,Japanese scientist, Dr.Roger , who studies about earthquake eruption and prediction of Japan , Based on his study and analysis of whatever under the sea, which I'm also not quite sure, he came up the prediction that Japan archipelago will sink in 338.54 days , however, his theory was thought as crap . No one ever believe him abouth this theory . Even worst than that , the eruption of earthquake and tidal wave ( some kinds of what we saw in Tsunami ) came even faster than that . Skycrapers, bridges, and buildings were all collapsed in a minute . Beautiful mountain Fuji became the all under arrested by fire. National heritage of Japan were brought to oversea. All Japan corporate stocks and bonds drop drastically, as people starting selling Japanese bonds & stocks. People were fleed to foreign countries designed by the state. However , not all of them can escape from this sour and terrible disaster, some people died because of the separation of the brigde or the fallen stones from the mountain onto them. It was very miserable and touching to see such a fearful disaster. At the last part of the movie , it was even more touching ever , Dr. Roger found out how to stop Japan from sinking to the ocean , which to bomb at the seabase by using N2 bomb ( quite similar to atomic bomb ) to put into the oil drilling marchine so that it will cut part of the land from falling down to the sea. 2 heros for the sake of the whole Japanese people , didn't migrate to oversea , but sacrified themselves in the sea to get the mission completed . To me , my heart was very touching when both of them pass away of such a respectful maner.

Actually , this movie was based on the Japanese scientific fiction " Japan Sinks " published in 1973. 6.4 million copied was sold and generate 40million of revenue at that time ...

I wonder if such a thing could ever happen to Japan as Japan hit the record in earthquake eruption ?
