To achieve this level of purity even when beginning with typical municipal water is a challenge since any water feed stream can contain a host of particulate contamination, trace metals, and chemicals as well as a variety of organic constituents. High-purity water is a fundamental raw material for many manufacturing and industrial processes. The more common applications include water used in research labs, for the manufacture of pharmaceuticals, in the microelectronics industry, many medical applications, and a host of industrial processes from boiler feedwater to manufacturing of optical materials
