The combined Severn Trent Services' units, which convert saltwater and energy into liquid sodium hypochlorite, can disinfect up to 13 million gallons of drinking water per day.
The donated systems, which comprise Sanilecsystems and one ClorTecunit are suitable for use in isolated locations where water purification, waste treatment or surface disinfection is required.
“Our portable disinfection units are so easy to use that ordinary citizens without any technical skill can disinfect their water using just salt, water and energy,” claimed Ali Giti, national sales director for Severn Trent Services.
“Our organization serves more than 38,000 families in Haiti through our household water treatment programs. Severn Trent Services’ donation of water disinfection equipment will improve our capacity to serve each of these families in an ongoing, sustainable way,” said According to Michael Ritter, co-founder and CEO of Deep Springs International, one of the charities benefiting from the units.
