The Sustainable, Self-Help, Solution

To Waterborne Disease in Under-Developed

Communities And Relief-Aid Applications

Watermaker-Sachet.Com

Safe water is the foundation of nutrition, so human settlement must always take place near a reliable water source

Waterborne disease is therefore not related to the availability of water, but rather its quality.

THE PROBLEM:

Raw water of high turbidity shields pathogens from ordinary disinfectants.

THE SOLUTION:

• Watermaker overcomes this with a patented, high-speed Purifier and Flocculant component that:

• Performs across the widest range of water types:• Removes more common waterborne diseases – faster – that

ordinary disinfectants• Requires up to 60% less chemical per litre than similar

technologies.• Removes heavy toxins like arsenic, cyanide, parathion and

others • No Chlorine taint

THE 3 CRITICAL CONSIDERATIONS:

Disinfection efficacy is fundamental, but laboratory results only tell part of the story. To maximise success in the real world additional needs must be considered:

• ADOPTABILITY: Is the treated water of an acceptable taste and appearance for end users to adopt and implement successfully once supervision is withdrawn?

• UNIVERSALITY: Can the technology perform across a wide range of water types without compromising its adoptability?

• SIMPLICITY: Can it be easily understood and integrated into

existing local structures and traditions?
