SkyHydrant™ Water Purification Unit

 

The SkyHydrant™ water purification unit is intended for affordable community water supply and disaster relief applications for production of clean pure water. The SkyHydrant™ purifies the water without the need for electric power or chemicals. The units can be a single stand alone installation or manifolded together for higher capacity (as shown in the Bagh Village photo). The SkyHydrant™ combines microfiltration for primary disinfection and particulate removal with chlorine disinfection to produce a safe supply of clean drinking water from the majority of non-saline surface and ground waters. The filtration barrier is a micro porous low pressure membrane that removes suspended solids, bacteria, helminths, protozoa such a Giardia, Cryptosporidium and some viruses. The membrane is robust, cleanable and long lasting.  All operating and membrane cleaning functions are extremely simple and manual.  The SkyHydrant™ uses no consumables, and the treatment process has no moving parts. The SkyHydrant™ produces no harmful toxic sludges, by-products or direct greenhouse gases.

The SkyHydrant is now available in roto-moulded food grade polyethylene, as depicted in the photo.

The compact flexible design of the SkyHydrant™ unit allows it to be operated in a range of configurations.

It is economical; compact, easy to transport and quick to deploy in the field.  It is lightweight (16kgs) and easily redeployed from one site to another.    Details of the unit design, including ancillary equipment requirements supplied by the end user, are detailed in the technical specification sheet.  This system offers a truly sustainable alternative for drinking water in poor, rural and remote communities.

Bulk Water Supply

The SkyHydrant is designed as a single unit, however it became evident that greater capacity was

required for major relief work, particularly in emergency and disaster situations.  Multiple SkyHydrants can be arranged in parallel and run under constant head pressure.  Under this configuration, the system can be designed for 100,000 to 200,000 litres per day output.
