Water Purification Technology

Manna is a leading developer of surface water treatment systems addressing bacterial contamination in the developing world.

• The surface water treatment systems take gravity fed water supplies and remove particulates through gravel and rapid sand filters. Clear water is disinfected with photovoltaic powered ultraviolet light.

• Manna’s systems operate with as little as 5 psi of provided water pressure, compared to 50 psi in a home in the United States.

• The systems are easily used – clean water is provided to existing standpipes at schools, hospitals, and in public locations.

• Remote monitoring systems provide performance and failure information over the cellular phone network to central computers, enabling rapid dispatch of technicians.

• Solar panels allow for future energy, internet and communication microenterprise.
