Commenting on the development, Marzin R Shroff, Eureka Forbes CEO - Direct Sales and Senior VP, Marketing, said the miniaturised water purification technology was rolled out after seven years of research.
"Aquaguard-on-the-Go is perhaps the only water purifier in India which can enable affordability, adaptability and availability of safe drinking water for Indians. It is an important milestone in the history of brand Aquaguard which will take our market leadership in India to the next level," he added.
The company said, the water purifier is powered by space nano technology, which has 100 crore plus optimally charged active sites that attract and can remove 99.9 per cent harmful bacteria and virus.
Water filled in sipper passes through a maze of nano sized positive charged media that traps negatively charged pathogens and other impurities to decontaminate drinking water, the company said.

    David Goldhill, author of “How American Healthcare Killed My Father” describes himself as a businessman with no more expertise or connection with the United States healthcare system than any other patient with ordinary encounters. This is until his father entered a non-profit hospital in New York City with pneumonia. The end result of this hospital visit, which is not entirely uncommon for an elderly person, is an unexpected death and a son’s personal exploration of why it happened and what could be done to prevent this incident in the future.

    To achieve this goal, the plant has initiated tours of their facilities, allowing key members of society, such as parents, Girls Scouts, and elected officials to watch and experience the purification process. The pilot facility must also prove themselves by providing water cleaner than current standards. To do this, many AWPF have established four levels of purification. The first level, microfiltration, is a water purification process by which water is sent through tubes at high pressure. These tubes contain 9,000 fibers, each with microscopic pores to filter bacteria from the water. The next step, reverse osmosis, is depicted as a more accurate, precise version of microfiltration where the water is sent through even more fibers with smaller pores. This stage eliminates even smaller chemicals and bacteria. Ensuing, Ultraviolet oxidation occurs when water is mixed with hydrogen peroxide and exposed to ultraviolet rays. This creates a chemical reaction that destroys residual chemical elements. The final level of purification is called ozone disinfection. This procedure introduces ozone into the water. The ozone then exterminates any remaining molecules. The article displays all four steps and their functions in a detailed reference…

    The combination of simple filtration and low-temperature sterilization can do the same work as the solar system do. The experiment shows that “filtration of raw water through four layered cotton-sari cloth (250μm) reduced the coliform count and further heating to sub-boiling temperatures (55–60°C) for less than an hour resulted in complete inactivation of coliforms. (Nimbkar and Rajvanshi 519)” The authors also mentioned that this is a “feasible and environmentally sustainable technique of disinfection to obtain clean drinking water. (Nimbkar and Rajvanshi 519)” If the methods is mature enough, it can also solve the water problem in the area without sufficient…

    In 1995, the company’s Frankfurt, Germany office stressed the need to develop and market products that target consumer households. The first idea was to develop a home water filter. By late 1995, the company was able to develop two models that were designed in the U.S. and introduced in Germany, Poland, Hungary, Romania, the Czech Republic, and Slovakia. The products were greatly successful. But, the quality of water in developing countries required a purifier instead of filters. Thus, in late 1999, company executives initiated the development of a water purifier which was given the brand name…
