Why can't we just blast the water with a lot of UVC, then add some chlorine or something as we do now??? I don't want any nanoparticles that could potentially leak past the magnet, deposit in my skin, and make toxins if I go in the sun.
We could probably make a whole lot of UVC LEDS for cheap if we scaled production. Plus, we already have lots of ways to filter. Is this really gonna be that much cheaper? The world has plenty of resources, seems like we could give people clean water with current tech.
Can't titanium dioxide make hydrogen peroxide too? Why does it have to be stirred in the water? Can't we have something bound to a surface for the light to hit?
- NotYourLawyer 3y agoIf you’re in a place without clean water, chances are pretty good you’re also in a place without electricity to run UVC lamps.
