Safe Water Purifier Project in Tanzania Western
Gold Standard · GS12035 · Tanzania
About this project
The project aims to provide safe drinking water to households in Tanzania Western. The project involves introduction of water purifiers as a way to provide safe drinking water. With a capacity to purify 3.6 liters of water per hour and a 15-year lifespan of the water purifier. The water filtration system requires no energy input or consumables. It will offer an affordable, long-term and zero emission solution for households that generally consume unsafe drinking water. It will not only dramatically increase access to safe drinking water but also reduce consumption for woody fuels previously required to treat drinking water, which will decrease environmental degradation and greenhouse gas emissions.
