What The Lifestraw can do
The Lifestraw®
can purify a minimum of 700 litres of water.
It kills and
removes 99.99% of waterborne bacteria and 98.7% of waterborne
viruses.
It removes
particles down to 15 microns and requires no electrical power
or spare parts.
The simplicity
of the design makes it easily accessible and usable wherever there
is contaminated water.
It does not
remove heavy metals and fluoride.
The Lifestraw®
is manufactured by Vesterguard Fransen who work hard to distribute
it in developing countries mostly through donations and charities.
How
The lifestraw works
LifeStraw®
personal contains a specially developed halogenated resin that
kills bacteria and viruses on contact; a special chamber further
increases the exposure of micro-organisms to the halogenated resin,
thereby enhancing the killing effect. Micro-filters are used to
remove all particles down to 15 microns. Activated carbon adsorbs
anything residual thereby improving the taste of water.
How
to use The LifeStraw®
Remove the
top and the bottom cap. Place in the water and suck. After use
blow through it to clear out any debris. Wipe and store.
