Karachi, August 26: The Leading Water Purification solution provider in Pakistan Sosafe has announced to design a special water purification plant for flood-affected areas that can convert the filthy flood water into drinking water removing bacteria, viruses, and odor from the water.
It is a fully automatic and trouble free water purification system that can purify up to 12000 gallons a day thus capable of providing clean drinking water to more than 20 thousand people a day. It doesnt require man power to operate it and is maintenance free for at least one year, said a company statement.
This low-cost water treatment plan has specially been designed to assist the flood related relief efforts being carried out by government, UN agencies and local and international NGOs as drinking water scarcity in the flood areas is one of the major problems being faced by these flood victims.
CEO, Sosafe Shahid Mahmood in his statement said that instead of working on long-term solutions for provision of drinking water to the flood victims, citizens and NGOs have spent millions of dollars on bottled water thus ignoring the long-term drinking water needs of the affected people. He said that by installing specially designed water purification plants one can save not only precious resources but also ensure long-term drinking water for these people.
This water purification plant would removes colloidal material, Cysts, Bacteria, reduce permeate turbidity to 0.1 NTU and is also based on timer programmable automatic Control flushing and, backwash.
Sosafe would provide prompt back up support for the water purification plant through a team of skilled engineers from its nationwide branch network.
According to United Nations contaminated water and a lack of proper sanitation are causing a spike in medical problems more than 3.5 million children are at risk from waterborne diseases, skin diseases, respiratory infections and malnutrition.
