Description Environmental contamination is one of the most ubiquitous issues of current world
and addressing the concern of waterborne pathogens calls out for cheap and ecofriendly
oriented research. In this regard, solar water disinfection (SWADIS) is a
clean and sustainable technology to inactivate the rapidly growing bacterial
pathogens. In current work, we highlight technological developments to enhance the
efficiency of SWDIS using a carbon nanoparticles (CNP) based Nano SWADIS
bottles.The system was proven to be able to performed 100% bacterial
inactivation in sunny days. Experiments were performed over 8 months by adding
106 CFU mL-1 concentration of Escherichia coli (E.coli) in water to mimic field
conditions. The efficacy of the system was indicated by bacterial analysis
(presence/absence of total coliform and faecal coliform) performed, making it
appropriate for treatment of water.
