    Diarrhoea Diarrhoea is caused by a variety of micro-organisms including viruses, bacteria and protozoans. Diarrhoea causes a person to lose both water and electrolytes,, which leads to dehydration and, in some cases, to death. About 4 billion cases of diarrhoea per year cause 1.8 million deaths, over 90 per cent of them (1.6 million) among children under five.

    This water filtration system uses the idea of groundwater purification to replenish water cheaply. A layer of pebbles, gravel, sand and cotton is put into a water bottle cut in half in that order, top to bottom. A picture of this system is shown on the website above

    "...this is just a miniature model made in 5 minutes. the elaborate plan is really that after this process, it will be aerated, so that the aerobic bacterias can form and eat up the unremovable toxins, which also produces the biogas, it is removed, then exposed to extreme uv radiation, and boiled that kills those bacterias too." -http://www.instructables.com/id/The-Simple-water-purification-System/ -In the comments section from the creator of the article

    Source water may contain turbidity (muddiness), particles, and organic material. Federal and state laws require all surface water systems and systems under the influence of surface water to filter their water. The primary water treatment technology uses filtration techniques. Filtration is the removal of particulates, and thus some contaminants, by water flowing through a porous medium.
