Comparative Analysis of Design of Water Filter for Rural Areas

Abstract

Over 1.34 billion people, including 0.51 billion children’s below six die every year because of infected drinking water. According to United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF) and the World Health Organization (WHO) One in eight people worldwide lack ingress to safe, clean clear potable drinking water, and maximum people had no choice but to drink the contaminated water with potentially life threatening bacteria and viruses. In poor developing countries people like India, obtain up to 5 gallon (Appox.19-20 liter) of safe, clean water each day. In ancient ages of human civilization boiling of water over a wood fire is one of commonly practices clean method for water purification, but it is still hazards in poor ventilated kitchen This paper is an attempt to inspect, examine and review the published research papers that have been carried out by various investigators so far with various low cost water treatment methods suitable in rural areas such as developing low cost water filters by using different filter media and different filter layers. This low cost water filter treatment is a sustainable tool option for rural areas
