Clean Water
Everywhere
For Everyone
open-source, low-complexity water treatment systems for decentralized implementation
AKWATECH is an open-source platform for innovative low-complexity water solutions. Our aim is a world where everyone has access to clean water purified by easy and self-built water filtration systems.
AKWATECH's Approach
AKWATECH aims to provide an open-source platform that allows users to upload their water analysis data and receive a customized construction plan for a water filtration system. Communities, institutions, and private households can then independently build a simple and effective system using locally available materials only.
Our Principles
Modular Combination of Low-Tech Treatment Steps
Adaptation to Local Water Quality, Materials and Skills
Robust & easy-to-maintain System Design
Suitable for...
...Surface Water and Groundwater Sources
...Microbiological Contamination, Turbidity, Basic physico-chemical challenges
...Communities, Institutions, and Household-level Systems
Step-by-Step Implementation
1. Water Analysis
2. System Configuration - by inserting Water Analysis Results into the platform
3. Download - AKWATECH's Construction Plan for free
4. DIY Construction - promoted by inclusive System Design
Today's focus
We are currently seeking pilot partners who want to collaborate with us in implementing and validating our solution.
If you are interested in exploring a partnership or would like to learn more about the project, we look forward to hearing from you.
