Successfully tried the fresh water treatment system in Ly Son

Mr. Dong Quoc Ve, official of the Center for Technology Application and Transfer - Vietnam Environment Administration (Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment) said that the Center has successfully installed and tested the project of contaminated water treatment system. fresh water for daily life for people in Ly Son island district, Quang Ngai province.

This success will help hundreds of households in areas lacking living water sources or use salty and contaminated water sources on the island to use clean water sources for daily food and drink.

According to the test model, at a tank with a capacity of 500 liters of water and 4 panels of Carocell energy (C3000) with simplely installed pipes, with the principle of distillation by thermal radiation, in heat 70-80 degrees Celsius, the system can handle 80 liters of clean water every day and be used directly without cooking. The model of treating contaminated water into fresh water for daily life shows a remarkable effect.

Dong Quoc Ve added that the design capacity of each C3000 energy plate with an area of ​​about 3m ² has the capacity to process 20 liters of clean water every day. This clean water treatment system is simple, using solar energy, the source of installation is low, suitable to the weather conditions and the capital of each local family. Therefore, this is a system that is considered to be optimal, high economic efficiency, improve the quality of life and living for people on Ly Son Island.

This system is capable of separating input water sources such as seawater, saline water, alum water in drilled wells, dug wells in households to separate into fresh water that is provided directly for daily consumption.

The installation for households in saline water areas or lack of water in two communes of An Hai and An Vinh on Ly Son Island is currently being conducted by the Center and will support installation in 2013.

Under the plan, the project will install 600 households in areas lacking domestic water sources or use saline water sources on the island, with a capital of nearly 10 billion funded by the Ministry of Natural Resources and Environment.
