More droughts, El Niṅos and hotter summer can be expected these coming decades. Simple skill such as water filtration made from common home stuffs can be valuable for survival.. being too reliant with the system could be disastrous in the event of crisis in which people can no longer know what to do, except for keep on struggling with the remaining resource.
I have seen areas hit by Typhoon Yolanda. People including their leaders lost touch with how to move on from this natural punishment. Because we became too dependent with the system, we lost precious skills supposedly we have.
This sand filter is intended only for turbidity and debris. I will be soon launching practical UV sterilizer for bacteria and parasite contamination. Using PVC pipes, UV lamps and quartz sleeves supplied by solar power, so you can have a self sustaining water treatment at home. No need to buy expensive equipment in the market. Bad odor can be treated simply by charcoal.
