Yet the villagers that buy these are given an added advantage. In
Cambodia, villagers only have to pay 6$ as the rest of the cost gets
funded by multiple NGOs such as C.L.E.A.R Cambodia who work
closely with (Mendell). The 6$ that the villagers pay ensure a sense
of ownership. Along with that the villagers now have motivation to
maintain and keep the Bio-Sand filters working as otherwise it would
be just a big waste of money (Mendell).
In essence Light Bio sand filters are great clean water filtration
systems. While using light and inexpensive materials such as PVC,
Light Bio sand filters make for a greater alternative to the more
commonly used Heavy bio sand filters. The Light Bio sand filter
comes with 4 biological and physical filtration layers including a
diffuser plate which allows water to slowly drip into the other layers,
a bio sand layer to kill all pathogens and filter the water, a fine
gravel layer and a coarse gravel layer to support the bio sand and to
ensure it doesnt mix with the water.
