Water purification methods have evolved over time from ancient practices like boiling water to modern techniques. In the 17th century, sand filtration was developed to purify water. Later innovations included rapid sand filtration in the late 19th century, chlorination in the early 20th century, and ultraviolet light disinfection in the late 20th century. Bleaching powder can also be used to sterilize water through chemical disinfection.
