2017 updates
August 2017 – Implementation trip
We just returned from our implementation trip where we provided the community with five chlorine producing units (CPU). CPUs use electrolysis to make chlorine from a mixture of table salt and water and is powered through a solar panel. The chlorine is then used to treat the drinking water!
