“Other process” includes water filters using a “filter candle” seen in many urban houses nowadays. There are water purifiers, which have a filter as well as a process of chemical treatment (e.g. treatment by ultra-violet radiation). For households using such water purifiers, the entry in item 11 will be 2 (and the entry in item 12 will be 1).
