- Excellent value: Each bottle purifies 350L of water. At RRP of £39 that means a cost of 11.4p / l. We are subsidising the bottles, offering YellowWood travellers a bottle for £20.00 working out at only 5.71p/litre! For comparison, in Tesco’s, a 500ml of Highland water will cost you 25p (and mean use of a plastic bottle that will end up as waste).
How does it work?
The purification core or Mechanically Advanced Disinfection capsule (aka M.A.D) contains up to 500 layers of pores between high surface area, sub-micron, charged neo-alumina fibres, Powdered Activated Carbon and antimicrobial silver impregnated zeolites.
The fibres create a natural electropositive charge, which covers the depth and void volume between the fibres and removes negatively charged submicron particles (e.g. viruses). Larger particles, e.g. bacteria and parasitic protozoan pathogens, are captured by electro adhesion and mechanical action, with the restriction of pathogenic cysts by mechanical restraint within the fibre matrix.
The small PAC particle size produces a rapid reaction with chemical contaminants.
The silver ion impregnate in the -2 micron zeolites is used to inactivate and inhibit growth of retained bacteria and is only released by ion exchange allowing for controlled delivery.
The media component is permanently bonded to the cap and is replaced as a complete unit when necessary
