Using Nano materials to treat water in flooded regions
Institute for Water, Irrigation and Environment under the Ministry of Agriculture and Rural Development has successfully created a device, using nano materials to treat Arsenic water and water (in flooded regions)and supply domestic water for rural areas.


Dr. Ha Luong Thuong, one of the researchers said, the water purifier is a simple-designed device that is easy to use and can attach to any places. Therefore, for water resource in the urban area, the user only attach the tap water to the purifier, then the water output can be used for drinking and household water.

In particular, for water input from rural areas, the device require a set of coarse filter like the sand filter for initial purifying process before attaching it to the nano materials purifier. This could help increase device’s lifespan and avoid getting blocked.

Researchers have produced purifier devices at household scale so far (60-80 litter/h); portable filter for flooded regions; water treatment system in domestic scale with capacity of 1,5 m3 to serve people in flooded region and etc.
