Safe and clean water is a basic human need, and any type of life existence is not possible without water. Water is in almost 71 percent of the earth's surface, but only one percent is available in the form of freshwater or drinkable water. Due to poor waste management, freshwater resources are getting polluted day by day, and the distribution of safe water becomes very difficult by conventional means. Bottled drinking water was first commercially introduced in 1767 by Jackson's Spa in Boston. In the 19th century, technical innovation and mass production of glass and plastic bottles increased the popularity of bottled drinking water, and now thousands of bottled water brands are being produced across the world. The widespread consumption of bottled water, the underlying economic burden that it imposes on the consumer, and its potential environmental impact call for a closer examination of this commodity relative to its health benefits. The purpose of the research was to undertake an empirical study to generate chemical profiles of selected bottled water brands to inform the comparable quality of the water. The research investigated several factors, including the sources of water used, the geochemical characteristics of the sources and whether there would be chemical footprints associated with the geochemical characteristics, the potential adverse health implications of the chemical footprints, how different water brands compare with respect to their chemical content, compliance with regulatory requirements, discrepancies between labeling information and the actual chemical content of the water, and whether or not there are discernible differences between municipal tap water and bottled water. Even though it was limited to a small group of bottled water brands, the study identified several areas of concern, including the lack of sufficient information on water processing (it appears that there is a correlation between the geochemical characteristics of the source and chemical footprint of the commodity), and the lack of uniformity in labeling, especially as it relates to regulatory requirements. The results also indicate that treating municipal tap water with commonly used household filtration systems, e.g., Brita produces water with mineral content that is, in some cases, lower than is the case for bottled water. Also, the filtration of tap water has the advantage of removing heavy metals. The removal of heavy metals was not discussed in the water processing of any of the brands studied.
