Puralytics' SolarBag is a portable, reusable, purification system tapping the power of sunlight and nanotechnology to treat contaminants in water. It exceeded each of the EPA's Guide Standard and Protocol for Testing Microbiological Water Purifiers requirements, which state that legitimate water purification methods must destroy 99.9999% of bacteria, 99.99% of viruses and 99.9% of protozoa.
The SolarBag exceeded these EPA standards without requiring any battery power, additive chemicals, pumping or cleaning of filters or membranes. The SolarBag also treats other contaminants not addressed by existing technologies on the market, such as pesticides, petrochemicals, heavy metals and pharmaceuticals.
