One major purpose of water purification is to provide clean drinking water. The purification procedure reduces the concentration of contaminants such as suspended particles, parasites, bacteria etc. To avoid this contamination some people use RO filters, aqua-guards etc. to purify the water. RO filters remove most of the minerals from the water leaving it with an acidic pH. Also, during the purification process, up to 20 gal of water is flushed down the drain for every gallon of filtered water produced and requires electricity. Bhabha Atomic Research Center technology filter is the best option to remove bacterial contamination, turbidity and odour. This filter does not need electricity or addition of any chemical.","Page image":"File:UV water filter.jpg","Page keywords":"filter, water, Water filters, Solar","Page language":"en","Page title":"UV water filter","Page views":"224","Page year":"Friday, 01-Jan-21 00:00:00 UTC","Project authors":"Priyanka Gharat","Project coordinates":"18.831533333333, 74.053644444444","Project location":"Pabal, Maharashtra, India","Project status":"Prototyped","Project thumb":"https://www.appropedia.org/w/images/thumb/4/41/UV_water_filter.jpg/330px-UV_water_filter.jpg","Project type":"Water filters","Project uses":"solar, filter, water","Project was made":"1","Project was replicated":"","Modification date":"Wednesday, 04-Mar-26 13:25:29 UTC"}
