Abstract
Disclosed herein are devices and methods for the purification of biologically contaminated water to make potable. In one embodiment, there is disclosed a low-pressure device comprising a housing having at least one inlet for receiving biologically contaminated water, and at least one outlet for removing purified water, wherein the housing contains a filter held in place by a seal sufficient to keep the biologically contaminated water separate from the purified water. Because of the novel permeability and purification properties of the disclosed carbon containing filter, the disclosed filter can remove virus, bacteria, cyst or any combination thereof, at water approaching velocity up to 5 cm/min. In various embodiments, the filter can have a flat planar design to be used in a flat pack application, or a more traditional tubular shape.
