00:00Safe drinking water made easy is our innovation today.
00:14Because of DOST, a water disinfection system was created that is easy to transport and solar-powered.
00:21Come on, let's change them!
00:237,641 islands that are surrounded by water.
00:33Despite that, there are still many in the Philippines who do not have access to potable water or clean drinking water.
00:40Actually, 2.9 million households do not have access to basic safe water supply here in the country
00:45or the safe and clean drinking water.
00:50There are many communities in the remote or high places.
00:54Especially if it is a time of disaster.
00:57To protect the safety of safe drinking water,
01:00DOST Industrial Technology Development Institute developed the SafeWaters,
01:07a mobile and solar-powered water disinfection system.
01:11The innovation won silver in the International Exhibition of Inventions Geneva.
01:17Our main objective is to provide potable water to areas affected by calamities
01:25and areas that do not have water supply.
01:30To be easily transported, the water disinfection system is more compact.
01:35It is also solar-powered to run even without electricity.
01:39Using a prototype, the engineer showed me how to clean the water.
01:45And what we will do with the drinking water?
01:48Fresh from Laguna Lake.
01:50First, it was filled with chemicals to separate pollutants and microorganisms.
02:00Our pollutants have settled.
02:03So, we will filter it.
02:06Engineer, can we start?
02:07Yes, sir.
02:08Engineer is holding it.
02:10I am so sick.
02:15This is the result after a long filtration process.
02:21It's clear.
02:22Cheers!
02:27It tastes like the water we ordered.
02:34SafeWaters can generate 200 liters of drinking water per hour.
02:39It can be used for rivers, surface water, and contaminated deep wells.
02:48It is also included in the Philippine National Standards for Drinking Water.
02:52Some communities in Quezon City, Batangas, Ilocos Sur, and Tarlac can benefit from it.
02:59The best part is that if 5 gallons of water costs P40,
03:04SafeWaters can produce P10 more.
03:09My fellow countrymen,
03:10the shortage of safe drinking water is a huge help in times of calamity.
03:16And for us to reach our fellow countrymen who are in need.
03:21For GMA Integrated News, I am Martin Aviar.
