Ultrafiltration in a water bottle
A water bottle containing an ultrafiltration system has been developed that can remove bacteria, viruses, cysts, parasites, fungi and all other waterborne pathogens without the aid of chemicals such as iodine or chlorine. The 6000 litre Lifesaver bottle, manufactured by Lifesaver Systems, also incorporates 'Failsafe' technology which, when the cartridge has expired, shuts the system off protecting the user from contamination.
"With the Lifesaver bottle there is no need for tablets, boiling, chemicals, tubes, shaking, scrubbing, waiting or effort. The Lifesaver bottle produces clean, sterile drinking water with no foul taste," said Michael W. Pritchard, CEO of Lifesaver Systems.
