DOST-ITDI
Problem with water pollution and accessibility to
potable drinking water has become a global crisis
In the Philippines, access to clean and safe
drinking water remains a problem both in rural
and urban areas
o 20% of total population – no access to potable
water (NSO)
o 432 municipalities with 50% service coverage
(waterless municipalities)
o 6,000 premature deaths a year caused by water-
borne diseases

Water Consumption: 8 glasses per
day/person
Total Philippine Population: 104 million
(as of 2013)
Costs of purified water:
350 ml - P10.00
500 ml - P13.00
1 L - P20.00
5 gals – P35.00-P40.00
Contaminants such as microorganisms and particulates
present in tap and ground water cause the spread of
water-borne diseases
Micro-filtration (e.g. ceramic-based micro-filters) is a
proven technique to take out such contaminants
The DOST thru ITDI can provide an innovative solution
in ceramic filtration to take out microbial/particulate
contaminants in drinking water for use in household
level

coating

- With potential as ceramic filter raw material
Isabela
Aklan
Formulated with red clay and
coated with nano anti-microbial
agent to eliminate water borne
microorganisms;
Purifies tap water, deep well
water and raw water (from
ponds and spring);
Lodged in a plastic container
provided with a faucet at the
bottom for collection of the
filtered water.
Easy to install/assemble
Easy to handle and
maintain
Reasonably priced
Makes safe, potable
drinking water readily
available and accessible
even in remote areas.
Distributed pot filters to NHA households
in Muntinlupa City and Cagayan de Oro

Feedbacks/Comments:
Nagagamit sa pagluluto
Masarap ang lasa ng tubig
Nakatipid sa pagbili ng mineral water
Maayos walang problema
Medyo mabigat
Matrabaho
Kailangan maingat sa paglinis
Sa unang paggamit, may amoy ang tubig
There was no reported/observed adverse
effect on the health of the users.
