Here is a great industrial solution to water contamination across the world, which lead to pathogen-induced diarrhea – the top killer of approximately 1.5 million children under age five in much of the developing world. Just drop the packet of water purifier; of the size of a ketchup packet, to even highly contaminated water and see how dramatically it reduces the diarrhea epidemics.
The powerful household water purification system also show promise for boosting water safety during emergencies and natural disasters, such as earthquakes, floods and hurricanes, where water purity is suddenly compromised, the researchers say.
The lifesaving packets, whose use is being expanded globally, was described recently at the 231st national meeting of the American Chemical Society.
