In developing countries, the most common way of treating household water is to boil it, which results in other risks, such as lung disease, burns, fire-hazards and deforestation. A simple, user-friendly household water filter developed by this project, in combination with an innovative business model, offers the promise of safe drinking water for millions of families in developing countries.
