chlorination cannot be used by illiterates

dirty water makes it difficult to

use of chlorination

dirty water makes it difficult to assess chlorine demand

chlorine as with any other chlorine – as with any other chemical – can be overdosed, leading to health damageleading to health damage

if chemicals are used up no if chemicals are used up, no water treatment is possible

the water is still dirty and not the water is still dirty and not aesthetic

As part of the research project field inspections were undertaken recently as As part of the research project, field inspections were undertaken recently as the distribution of the units started in Sept 2010 and some 900 units are in use worldwide by now in more than 50 countries worldwide from Afghanistan y gto Zimbabwe

Field inspections were undertaken by DESEE in Benin, Colombia, Myanmar, p y yNepal and Pakistan

Third party field inspections were undertaken in Cambodia, Gambia, Indonesia and Tanzania.

Even after three years of usage, no case is known where a chemical cleaningwas undertaken

a minority of units are non operational today, mostly due to misuse (dry out f h b )→ b b hiof the membrane)→ to be overcome by a hint on storage

No case is known where the organization that brought PAUL into use has ll t d it ll it t i l f trecollected it – all units stay in place for permanent use

PAUL – due to its long lifetime – is more and more used in schools etc., improving health conditions effectively

The drinking water supply in Bénin is The drinking water supply in Bénin is problematic as seasonal water shortages regularly occur, particularly in rural areas, g y , p y ,where only about 50% of the population has access to clean drinking water. About half of the population Bénin takes its drinking water from open ponds and rivers or other hazardous water sources Water borne diseases arewater sources. Water‐borne diseases are therefore among the most common diseases.

Within the frame of a cooperation with GIZ Within the frame of a cooperation with GIZ (Deutsche Gesellschaft für internationaleZusammenarbeit) six PAULs were located for permanent water supply in southeast Bénin in 2012 and were monitored over an operation
