The micro waves would "miss" the bacteria. Look up why ants survive in the same scenario. It would need to heat up the water to boiling temp to be effective. The micro waves by themselves wouldn't do much, if anything.

[@mrbanana6464]

​@@evanfrucht "Miss" is not a great way of explaining it. The only reason ants don't heat up is because microwave beams are standing waves. This means there are "hot spots" and "cold spots" in a microwave, and ants are small enough to avoid hot spots in real experiments. Microwaves can in fact heat up ants and/or bacteria if blasted directly. They're not "too small" for the wavelength of the microwave because the microwaves are interacting with the water molecules.

Maybe also try some weird home remedies to see if any actually have any merit?

[@TheMegaAsh]

Despite most of the organisms theoretically dying off before the water reaches boiling point it is advised to bring water to a rolling boil for several minutes because at higher altitudes water boils at a lower temperature. Boiling for several minutes at higher altitudes just ensures that you actually reach the temperature required to kill bacteria.

I've been searching for a video on ice from the soda machine since I hear and have seen the low maintenance they do on those things, and beer, if you're comfortable maybe mercury. Please and thank you for your content

We did a similar project in school. However, instead of putting the water back in the same cup, we put a strainer on then added the water. It was clear and appeared clean, but we still weren't allowed to drink it. The school would have been liable if we had gotten sick. All in all, it was a great project.

I remember using pond water to make instant ramen on camping trips. The adult leader would have a hand-operated pump with a filter attachment, and we were instructed to bring the water to a “rolling boil” before dropping in the ramen to cook. The kids who didn’t boil the water thoroughly threw up within an hour of eating the ramen.

Boiling the water only kills what's in the water, it doesn't remove anything in the water such as pesticides, fertilizers, or any other environmental contaminates.

I remember when I was in 2nd year of med school, we've done an experiment in Microbiology in which we compared each different bacteria is form in different environments and conditions such a bathroom, the lab, unwashed vs washed hands using agar plates, and the we saw the colonies through the microscope
