Water contaminated by flood, fire, earthquake,
tornado, sewage, pesticides, heavy metals, and bacteria can be cleaned
in a 1.5 or 3-gpm portable unit. The
units are small and light allowing them to be carried in a jeep or
pickup and operate off of a single phase 110 or 220-volt generator.
The self-priming pump
feeds water into a skid mounted electrocoagulation system followed by a
self-cleaning 0.2-micron ceramic filter.
Electrocoagulation
causes bacteria, pesticides, heavy metals, and silt (suspended solids)
to increase in size, making them removable in the 0.2-micron ceramic
filter, insuring clean drinking water.
