What affects the taste of water?

Water is the foundation of life and an indispensable part of our daily lives. Although most of the water people encounter is not pure water, but a solution containing various dissolved inorganic salts, these salts, or mineral ions, give the water its unique taste. Because the geological environments through which water flows vary, the types and concentrations of dissolved minerals in the water also differ, resulting in the distinct taste of water in different regions. Below, we will explore how several common ionic elements affect the taste of water and how ETERNALWORLD achieves precise water blending to achieve customized tastes.

1. The Impact of Elemental Content in Water on Taste

Calcium: 

High levels of calcium ions in water can impart a subtle salty and slightly acidic taste, enriching the water's flavor 

profile. The optimal taste occurs when the calcium ion concentration is moderate (around 15mg/L). 

When the concentration rises to 100-300mg/L, the water develops a harsh, astringent taste.

Magnesium: 

Similar to calcium, magnesium ions contribute a bitter taste to the water. A moderate amount of magnesium 

(10-100mg/L) makes the water smooth and mellow, but an excessive concentration (>440-600mg/L) increases the bitterness.

Potassium: 

Potassium ions can affect the pH of the water, making it slightly alkaline and altering its taste. 

Low concentrations of potassium (<20mg/L) are typically not noticeable, but some studies suggest that it may add a slight 

sweetness to the water.

Sodium:Sodium ions are known for their "salty" taste, and the higher the concentration, the more pronounced the saltiness. 

When the sodium ion concentration exceeds 93mg/L, the water begins to have a noticeable salty taste.

Iron: 

Iron ions impart a faint bitter, sweet, and astringent taste to the water. According to the "Sanitary Standard for 

Drinking Water" (GB5749), the iron content in drinking water should be below 0.3mg/L to avoid negatively affecting the 

sensory quality of the water.

Zinc: 

Zinc ions also contribute an astringent taste. When the concentration is between 0.2mg/L and 1mg/L, the water will 

have a slight astringency. If it exceeds 3mg/L, the water turns milky and has a sharp, salty, and astringent flavor.

Silicon: Silicon is primarily found in water in the form of orthosilicic acid. Water with high concentrations of orthosilicic acid 

(>25mg/L) tends to have a richer, smoother taste.

2. ETERNAL WORLD Technology for Precise Water Blending

ETERNAL WORLD Technology is a revolutionary mineral water production technique that extracts pure mineral elements 

from natural ores and compounds them into a specially designed ceramic material framework. Using the LSR (Slow Release) 

technology, it ensures the slow and continuous release of these mineral elements into the water.

Technology Principles:

- Eliminating Harmful Substances: 

The minerals are finely processed to remove harmful substances like heavy metals.

- Targeted Purification of Mineral Elements: Beneficial minerals such as calcium, magnesium, and potassium are precisely extracted.

- Incorporating Into Ceramic Materials: These minerals are locked into the ceramic material, forming a stable composite that is durable and biocompatible.

- Flexible Combination of Mineral Elements: 

Different mineral elements can be combined based on specific needs.

- Minerals Released into Pure Water: 

Pure water flows through the ceramic material containing minerals, carrying the required minerals into the water.

- Accurate Restoration of Mineral Indicators: 

The release speed and proportion of minerals are precisely controlled to closely replicate the composition of natural mineral water.

Technological Advantages:

- Raw Mineral Purification: 

Ensures the quality and safety of mineral elements.

- Pure Composition: 

The extracted mineral elements are single and free of impurities.

- Precise Control: The concentration of mineral element dissolution is precisely controlled, allowing for customized mineral formulas.

- Tailored Customization: Based on market and consumer demand, the types and proportions of mineral elements can be customized.
