Abstract
It is demonstrated experimentally that the application of freezing - unfreezing procedure for the purification of water from soluble amounts of CaCO3 under the conditions recommended for obtaining water from melted ice (freezing ~0.2 l of water at -17 oC) is ineffective. An explanation is the fact that salt freezes into the ice. It is concluded that changes in the concentrations of inorganic impurities cannot be a decisive physicochemical factor for distinguishing between the melted water and the initial one.
