Puralytics Solar Bag

The sun provides the only power source for a complete water purification system in a portable container. The initial product provides about 3 liters of pure drinking water in 2 to 4 hours exposure to sunlight, even on a cloudy day. The clear top cover allows the optimum wavelengths of sunlight to stimulate the photocatalytic reaction; the black back material absorbs any extra sun energy to provide thermal flow across the photocatalyst. The SolarBag 3L is equipped with a large (42mm) filtered opening for filling. The purified water is dispensed through a smaller opening, compatible with many drinking and serving accessories.

Five photochemical processes work together synergistically to break down or remove contaminants from water. This process actually destroys contaminants, rather than capturing them and creating a hazardous waste disposal problem.

 
 
Photocatalytic Oxidation

Photocatalytic oxidation

Previously unobtainable, selected wavelengths of UV light generate unprecedented levels of hydroxyl radicals (OH-) without any chemical additives.
Photocatalytic Reduction

Photocatalytic reduction

Reduces toxic species such as mercury (Hg II), silver (Ag I), arsenic (As V, and chromium (Cr VI) to more readily adsorbed materials.
Photolysis

Photolysis

Direct disassociation of contaminants by high intensity UV light, including atrazine, amoxicillin, DEET, and all estrogenic chemicals.
 
Photoadsorption

Photoadsorption

The catalyst strongly adsorbs heavy metals including mercury, lead, selenium, and arsenic, permanganate, and other compounds.
Photo Disinfection
Photo Disinfection
Multiple wavelengths and high intensity UV disinfect pathogens more effectively than standard UV germicidal.
