Co-development of technology for measuring faecal contamination of drinking water
This study details a transdisciplinary project aimed at co-developing water quality monitoring technology in Vanuatu, focusing on the island of Efate. The research addressed the technology and user needs gap by engaging community members and stakeholders. The authors identified faecal contamination through water sample testing and developed a tailored device to detect Escherichia coli ( E. coli ) and other harmful germs.

Have they looked at UV light? That was introduced quite a while ago as a fast, cheap, and portable method of detecting bacterial contamination in many things, including foods. The industrial-grade purifying systems are also worth looking at if sufficient power is available.
