Petrochemicals, including hydrocarbons from petroleum , benzene and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) , are invisible but highly dangerous pollutants in our drinking water. These substances enter the groundwater through industrial wastewater, tank leaks and oil disasters. But the worst thing is that they can be detected almost everywhere.
In contaminated regions, a single glass of water can contain tiny traces of benzene - a substance that, according to the WHO, is carcinogenic even in very small quantities. Over a week, a month or a year, the intake of these toxic substances adds up. Studies estimate that a person absorbs several micrograms of PAHs per year through drinking water, which can have devastating long-term consequences.
Petrochemicals attack the central nervous system, damage the liver and kidneys, and are suspected of causing serious diseases such as leukemia and lung cancer. PAHs in particular bind to our DNA and can cause irreversible mutations. The effects are particularly dangerous for pregnant women and children - the risk of malformations and developmental disorders increases.
