Clean Water for the World

By providing a source of clean, safe drinking water to those in need, we can prevent waterborne disease and circumvent the need to treat it. For those without access to doctors and antibiotics, this prevention is literally life saving.

ACI technologies are specifically designed to function in areas where water purification is needed most.

Aqua Clara International exists to provide technologies for cleaning water that can be used by individuals and families who subsist on less than $2 per day.  Our technologies require no electricity and have no moving parts and are constructed principally of local materials to keep costs low; are produced by local crafts people and/or local manufacturing units to create local jobs and businesses; and provide a value added component that distinguishes ACI’s technologies.

There are generally two types of water available to individuals and families in developing countries:  water that is brought to the home from streams, ponds, rivers, wells, or other similar surface water sources, or water that is processed by a municipal water system.  Both types of water are generally contaminated and not suitable for human consumption without causing disease or sickness.  Each type requires a specific technological intervention to ensure clean water is available.
