Clean water with a photovoltaic bag

The lack of clean water is the cause of death for millions of people around the world. For example, sub-Saharan Africa wants clean water to walk for several days to source. So a $ 5 purifier and purifier will be the right solution.

The filter prototype was designed by Ryan Lynch and Marcus Triest, without the battery, whose solar power is the source of the equipment.

Previously, when PET bottles were introduced to dirty water and exposed to UV-A radiation from the sun, most pathogens in the water would be eliminated and water would be safe to drink.

However, PET bottles can only clean 3 liters of water within 6 hours. At the same time, the Solar Bag can filter 9.4 liters, but this type of bag can be worn on the shoulder to easily move around.

This is an interesting idea, the prototype is there but no official information when the Solar Bag is mass produced.
