Aquacube's™ range of products will cope with the demands of almost any market
requirement for clean, safe drinking water, including disaster relief, small communities,
camp applications including construction and peacekeeping operations.
Peacekeeping
Whether for short, medium or long term deployments, potable water is essential to
maintain an effective peacekeeping force.
The Aquacube™ range of products offer the flexibility frequently required
in peacekeeping operations, producing large volumes of high quality water in the
most challenging environments.
Our products offer a range of transportation options, from rugged trailer mounted
units that can be towed by standard 4x4 vehicles, to containerised units that can
be shipped using standard shipping methods.
Complete water infrastructure packages can be supplied, including treatment, storage,
distribution and on-site water quality testing.
Aid
Over 1.5 million people die every year from diseases caused by unsafe water supplies,
inadequate sanitation and hygiene. The majority of these people are children under
5 living in developing countries.
The Aquacube™ range of products enables virtually any available water supply
to be treated, providing potable water to the people who are most at risk, greatly
reducing these drinking water related deaths.
The Aquacube™ range can be used in both short term disaster management and
for long term supply of potable water to communities in developing countries.
The Aquacube™ designs enable units to be taken to virtually any location and
treat virtually any water source.
Construction
Supply of potable water to construction sites can be a logistical problem as water
infrastructure is frequently not in place. The Aquacube™ range enables water
from virtually any available water supplies to be utilised, minimising the logistics
and cost associated with supplying water to construction workers.
Aquacube™ products can also be used to treat previously unusable water to
a standard suitable for industrial uses, e.g. using a seawater source to provide
water to make up cement and concrete.
Municipal Supply
In times when municipal supplies are unreliable or unavailable, Aquacube™
products can act as an effective backup, providing drinking water for populations
of up to approximately 80,000*.
As a result of the Aquacube™ designs, they can be deployed in these scenarios
for short or long term operation, and produces water at a price comparable with
existing municipal water treatment works.
*Based on World Health Organisation's estimates of 4.5 litres of drinking water required
per person per day while conducting manual labour in high temperatures.
Horticulture
Experiments have been carried out to highlight the potential benefits for both the
Horticulture and Agriculture industries in the use of the Biocidal solution by electro-chlorination,
produced by the Aquacube™. The advantages of deploying Aquacube™ with
electro-chlorinator in Agriculture and Horticulture Industries are:
- Improved crop yield.
- Clenox™ can act as an effective grain disinfectant.
- Prolong shelf life of cut flowers, fruit and vegetables.
- The Aquacube™ produces purified water for crop spraying, which can be beneficial
for the quality of crops produced.
- The Aquacube™ can also decrease the toxicity of effluent by filtering out
any unwanted contaminants.
- Effective removal of pesticides and herbicides from fruit and vegetable crops can
be achieved by the spraying of electro-chlorination solution onto the crops.
Tourist Industry
Aquacube™ products can be used to provide a reliable supply of high quality
drinking water to hotels and holiday resorts in locations such as the Caribbean
and Latin America.
These regions often have tap water that is unsuitable for drinking by visitors and
tourists. To combat this problem, many holiday resorts either import bottled water
or install water purification systems to filter the mains tap water.
Aquacube™ products offer a superior solution to the provision of a safe drinking
supply, than many of the water purification units used in these regions.
