Sawyer Products' Portable Water Filter
Published on by Water Network Research, Official research team of The Water Network in Technology
Sawyer Products' portable water filter that allows you to purify virtually any kind of water.
Screw it onto a water bottle, or the included pouch, and drink straight from the filter.
It claims to remove 99.9% of bacteria and viruses— making it an ideal device for hiking, camping, or drinking water in underdeveloped countries.
The water filters contain a high number of tiny ‘U’ shaped hollow fiber micro-tubes that trap contaminants while allowing decontaminated water to freely pass through at a high flow rate — eliminating the need to store water and reducing the possibility of water contamination after the filtration process.
The Sawyer MINI is certified for 0.1 micron filtration, meaning there is no pore size larger than 0.1 micron in size. This makes it impossible for harmful bacteria (like salmonella or leptospirosis), protozoa, or cysts like E. coli, Giardia, Vibrio cholerae, and Salmonella typhi to pass through the filter.
