Fifty million people in India alone struggle with health issues related to the lack of access to clean drinking water. Most of this is due to citizens obtaining water from under the chemically contaminated ground rather than from the tap. Panasonic has stepped in to address this world-wise issue.

At the Eco-Products convention in Tokyo, Panasonic revealed its solution to the dirty water problem. The company has developed its own photocatalytic water purification tech that allows UV rays to detoxify polluted water. This quick method has been proven effective to neutralize arsenic, bacteria, hexavalent chromium, and organic pharmaceutical waste. This technology has the potential to save millions of lives.
