@ Janajal - Social Initiative.....
The initiative is commendable. But, from where do the ATMs get relatively less contaminated water of adequate quantity. Since, in India, over 70% the water sources (both surface water and groundwater) are polluted with some or the other pollutants, such as, nitrate, fluoride, arsenic, fertilizers, pesticides,...etc.
I shall appreciate receiving more details on the technology of the ATM facility to make polluted water safe. How safe is safe?

Best wishes to all associated in the initiative.
