What is the color code for hot water pipe line?
Typically there is no colour code. Any fresh water line running into your house is drinkable unless you have a reuse system. DON'T DRINK FROM IRRIGATION some citys use reclaimed water (grey water I.e. from showers and washing your hands) for irrigation.ONLY Civilized countries use color codesCountries with a bonifide plumbers guild and actually have a test for the masters licenses have color codes to prevent cross contamination of potable and non potable water systems.Depending on which code one uses will dictate the color coding OR metal tagsstating safe water or Unsafe water. Round for safe triangle for UnsafeThe reason for color coding is in high rise building there is a variety of piping systems such as fire suppression , potable , gray water, Combined fire systems (stand pipe and sprinkler) Fuel - gas - oil - steam and industrial lines such as pneumatic lines for controlsThe AWWA for example has under ground piping codes so in countries that have an established infrastructure workers know which piping are for utilities and waste and water supply rather then taking a chance of cutting into a wrong line

How is water used in industry?
I just happened to be doing that for school so here is a unfinished copy of it. Industry In Industry water is used in many different ways. Unfortunately they can only use fresh water because salt water can and probably will break the machines. Some things that factories use water for is generating electricity. The way that they generate is called hydroelectricity. What happens is that the water goes through tunnels and down turning the turbines. The generators then harvest the energy that is made through the turbines. For industries it might be a bit expensive to start but then in the long run they will save money. They also use it in paper industries for creating the pulp which eventually after a process is turned into paper (for more information check the paper section on this poster). It is also valuable to industries for its ability to wash things away. Industries wash away waste materials. The industries that use machines use water for cooling and washing. Some food companies use water as an ingredient in their food. They would also use water for sanitation.
Which industries use waterjet cutting?
Industries that requires the fabrication of machine pieces or the cutting and shaping of a material, such as aerospace and mining, use water jet cutting.
