How To Make A Water Filtering System In The Forest

80% of all illness in developing countries is caused by polluted water. It is estimated that two million people die from these illnesses every year.

To make a water filter in the forest is not simple, aborigines have to collect many materials from dangerous places.

The water filter unit is designed as a point-of-entry system that filters water directly as it enters a home plumbing system from a municipal or private well water source.

Most water filters use a four-stage filtration system. The first stage of filtration removes any sediment materials in the water that may clog the filter, reducing its effectiveness. The second stage then uses a chemical process called water atomization to alter the molecular structure of chlorine and turn it into the harmless molecule, zinc chloride. The third and fourth stages of filtration involve bituminous-activated carbon and coconut-shell activated carbon media to filter pesticides, remnants of biological matter, and other harmful chemicals. Bituminous-activated carbon is currently the best available technology for filtration purposes.

 

Looks like the video you linked to is unavailable. This idea interests me so if you could write out the steps that would be awesome!

Go back to the Forums and look. there is an entire forum about nothing but water where to find it and how to make it safer to drink. Lots of good info there.

You might also go here and look. They have all sorts of make it yourself water filters.
