Israel Sends Mobile Water Purification System to Parched Pacific Island – Abigail Klein Leichman (Israel21c)
Israel’s G.A.L. Water Technologies is sending a unique water-purification system loaded into a vehicle to the Marshall Islands, which suffer a serious lack of drinking water, in a donation from the Israel Ministry of Foreign Affairs.
G.A.L. Deputy CEO Sigal Levi said: “This new product, patented in 171 countries, is the first of its kind in the world. In a few minutes you have enough fresh water for 6,500 people to drink, completely automatically.”
The mobile treatment, storage and distribution unit could save lives following natural disasters, when drinking water may be impossible to procure.
