Solvatten is a Swedish invention that purifies and heats water. The product saves lives as it effectively prevents the spread of waterborne diseases. By combining several well-documented methods for water purification Solvatten can provide between 11-33 liters of portable water per day. At the same time, Solvatten provides climate benefits by reducing the need for wood, charcoal and other fuels.

 

The project was initiated in 2013 by ZeroMission and Solvatten jointly. Together with myclimate and Ecotrust, we offer carbon offsetting through Solvatten. The project is validated and certified in accordance with the Gold Standard certification.
