Please clarify does it really require 100 MW for purifying 01 Litre water?

The interesting part is that its use can be scaled from a small bottle to a large community-based system. The innovation requires an electric field to polarise minute impurities and bring them together as larger chunks that can then be removed by low cost meshes. The innovation is not just easy to use but also consumes very less power. It requires just 100 mW of power to purify 1 litre of highly contaminated water. A small purifier can be easily powered by a battery or solar cell, making it easier to operate, according to reports.
