SURVIVAL PRINTOUT WATER Bleach: Ordinary household bleach (such as Clorox) in the US contains 5.

25% sodium hypochlorite (NaOCL) and can be used 1% 10 to purify water if it contains no other active ingredients, scents, 4-6% 2 or colorings. Bleach is far from an ideal source due to its bulkiness (only 5% active ingredient), and the instability over 7-10% 1 time of the chlorine content in bleach. Chlorine loss is farther increased by agitation or exposure to air. One source claims chlorine loss from a 5% solution at 10% over 6 months if stored at 70deg F. Nevertheless, this may be the only chemical means available to purify water, and it is far better than nothing. Normal dosage is 8 drops (0.4 ml) per gallon. Allow the treated water to sit for 30 min., and if there isn't a slight chlorine smell, retreat. Note: USP standard medicine droppers are designed to dispense 0.045 -0.055 ml per drop. Use of other solvents or some chemicals can change this. The dropper can be calibrated against a graduated cylinder for greater accuracy. Iodine Iodine Preparations Preparation Iodine Topical Solution Iodine Tincture Lugol's Solution Povidone-Iodine (Betadine) Tetraglycine hydroperiodide (Globaline, Potable Aqua, EDWGT) Pool Shock as a Water Purifier Topic Shock is 60-70% chlorine, while household bleach is 5-6%. The Australian Health Department recommends 7 grams of dry shock or 40ml of liquid per 1000 liters. So .007 grams of powder or .04ml of liquid per liter. You'd need a 40 or 50 gallon tank to require an easily measurable ammount. Calcium Hypochlorite For granular calcium hypochlorite, 1oz = 50ml = 10.1 teaspoons To treat clear raw water with 65-70% calcium hypochlorite there are a couple of ways to do it. If you want to directly treat the water with calcium hypochlorite use the following: 1 Gallon: add one grain, about the size of the period at the end of this sentence. 55 Gallons: add 1/8 teaspoon for a 5ppm solution. 400 Gallons: add 1 level teaspoon for a 5ppm solution. To make a 5% chlorine solution to be able to use the drop method for disinfecting water, add and dissolve add teaspoon of 65-70% calcium hypochlorite to cup of water. This will decay at the same rate of purchased 5.25% bleach so dont make more than you will use in a fairly short time. Calcium Hypochlorite 2 Add and dissolve one heaping teaspoon of high-test granular calcium hypochlorite (HTH) (approximately 1/4 ounce) for each two gallons of water. The mixture will produce a chlorine solution of approximately 500 mg/L, since the calcium hypochlorite has an available chlorine equal to 70 percent of its weight. To disinfect water, add the chlorine solution in the ratio of one part of chlorine solution to each 100 parts of water to be treated. This is roughly equal to adding 1 pint (16 oz.) of stock chlorine to each 12.5 gallons of water to be disinfected. To remove any objectionable chlorine odor, aerate the water as described above.

SODIS

The container needs to be exposed to the sun for 6 hours if the sky is bright or up to 50% cloudy. The container needs to be exposed to the sun for 2 consecutive days if the sky is 100% cloudy. If a water temperature of at least 50C is reached, an exposure time of 1 hour is sufficient. The most favourable region for SODIS lies between latitudes 15N/ S and 35N/ S Rehydration 4 packets of salt (3 grams); 4 packets of sugar (14.16 grams) in a liter of water is surprisingly close to the ideal ratio.

SOAP MAKING Primitive Ashes Of A Wooden Fire Fat A Pan

Heat (don't burn - be carefull) the fat in a pan. Stir in ashes. Pour the broth into some moulds/molds and let sit. That's about it. The quantities of the ingredients depend on the quality of the fat or the ashes. Just try - won't be that difficult. Basic A small plastic dishpan, about 10" x 12" A glass or enamel 2-quart saucepan 1 can of lye (sodium hydroxide), 12 ounces 3 pounds of lard Plastic gloves [really; use eye-protection too] water

1. Pour 3 cups of very cold water (refrigerate water overnight first) into the 2-quart saucepan. 2. Slowly and carefully add the lye, a little bit at a time, stirring it with the a wooden or plastic utensil. (Use plastic gloves for this; test them for holes first.) Do not breathe the vapor or lean over the container or have children nearby. Above all _use no metal_. The mixture will get very hot. In olden days, a sassafras branch was used to stir, imparting a fragrance and insect deterrent for mosquitoes, lice, fleas and ticks. 3. Let cool at least one hour in a safe place. Meanwhile, the unwrapped lard should be warming up to room temperature in the plastic dishpan. 4. Slowly and carefully, pour the lye solution into the dishpan with the lard. The lard will melt. Mix thoroughly, at least 15 minutes, until it looks like thick pudding. 5. Let it set until the next morning, then cut it into bars. It will get harder after a few days. Then package. If you wish to make soap based on olive oil, use about 48 ounces. It may need to harden for a week.
