Gizmag Comment Feed: Tree seeds could provide low-cost water purification for developing nations http://www.gizmag.com “In the developing world, more than 1 billion people cannot get clean drinking water... The United Nations says that dirty water causes 80 percent of diseases in the developing world, and kills 10 million people annually.” Those sobering lines are from the United Nations’ website, and underscore just how urgently needed water purification is in much of the world. What many people don’t realize, however, is that there are already naturally-occurring water filtration supplies available in many of these areas. They come in the form of seeds from the Moringa oleifera tree, and used properly, they can produce a 90.00 to 99.99% bacterial reduction in previously untreated water. en gizmag.com Comment on 'Tree seeds could provide low-cost water purification for developing nations' by robo http://www.gizmag.com/moringa-tree-seeds-purify-water/14427/#comment-88546 http://www.gizmag.com/moringa-tree-seeds-purify-water/14427/#comment-88546 Sun, 30 Oct 2011 21:44:04 -0500 Comment on 'Tree seeds could provide low-cost water purification for developing nations' by JohnB http://www.gizmag.com/moringa-tree-seeds-purify-water/14427/#comment-53002 http://www.gizmag.com/moringa-tree-seeds-purify-water/14427/#comment-53002 Tue, 15 Mar 2011 15:19:37 -0500 Comment on 'Tree seeds could provide low-cost water purification for developing nations' by Anumakonda Jagadeesh http://www.gizmag.com/moringa-tree-seeds-purify-water/14427/#comment-19279 http://www.gizmag.com/moringa-tree-seeds-purify-water/14427/#comment-19279 Wed, 07 Apr 2010 01:33:01 -0500 Comment on 'Tree seeds could provide low-cost water purification for developing nations' by Raamis http://www.gizmag.com/moringa-tree-seeds-purify-water/14427/#comment-18664 http://www.gizmag.com/moringa-tree-seeds-purify-water/14427/#comment-18664 Tue, 30 Mar 2010 04:45:33 -0500
