The device is designed to disinfect drinking water in conditions where there is a risk of contamination of its source: in the field, campsites, camps, foreign business trips, the press service of the Academy of Sciences of the Republic of Uzbekistan reports.
The action of the device is based on the effect of electrolysis of metal ions into water, which destroy a wide range of pathogenic microorganisms, including pathogens of dysentery, cholera, typhus and others.
A unique feature of the device is the use of a specific alloy of three metals, which provides the highest biocidal activity against a wide range of bacteria at low concentrations of metals that meet drinking water standards.
