Addressing the concerns for WASH in post-disaster
scenario, Pragya is carrying out significant work in Uttarakhand, India for
communities that have suffered damage to their water supply and storage systems
or are currently experiencing water stress or those that are identified to be
dependent on contaminated/unsafe water sources for drinking purposes. Pragya is
installing BARC (Bhabha Atomic Research Centre) approved technology for
filtration units comprising activated carbon and 0.01 micron membrane filter
that can remove micro-biological impurities to ensure safe water for these
communities. The membrane life is 3-5 years with 300 ltr/day output at 10 psi
pressure.
