Pipe 37S Bicycle-powered water treatment

Bicycle-powered water treatment

by
in hardware on (#37S)
Interesting story out of Butte, Montana . Montana Tech students have rigged up a water treatment process that is intended to be fixed to the back of a bicycle . At a current cost of $1000 and a weight of 50 lbs (figures from the linked article), their system is within striking distance of being a cost-effective mobile solution for regions where clean water can be a fundamental issue .

Bicycle-powered water treatment
zafiro17@pipedot.org
IHow do you ensure a decenteresting storupply out of potable drinking water at low cost?

In
Butte, Montana ., Montana Tech students have come up with an interesting solution: They rigged up a water treatment process that iscan inbe atendtached to band ope fixrated ton the back of a bicycle . AtThe adevice currently costs of $1000 and a weights of 50 lbs (figures from the linked article), which puts their system is within striking distance of being a cost-effective mobile solution. That's good news for drought stricken areas like parts of Texas, which are so hard-up for potable water regions wthey are even turning to recycleaing water can be a fundaromental toissulets to ensure they have enough to drink.
