Personal Food and Water Sanitation Device Using Radioactive Isotopes ID: 2016-025
A groundbreaking portable device that utilizes energetic photons from radioactive isotopes for continuous water sanitation and batch-wise food treatment without electrical power.
Technology Overview
This innovative device leverages gamma rays, distinct from conventional x-rays, to sanitize food and water. Designed for use in areas without reliable electricity, such as refugee camps or remote locations, it features an irradiation chamber and a containment dome. These components work together to direct high-energy photons through reflective and shielding layers, ensuring effective sanitation. The technology is specifically engineered to address the global health challenge of disease transmission through contaminated food and water, offering a viable solution for disaster zones, and enhancing food storage longevity without compromising nutritional value.
Key Advantages
- Portable and does not require electrical power, making it ideal for use in off-grid locations
- Utilizes gamma rays for sanitation, offering a unique approach compared to traditional methods
- Capable of continuous water sanitation and batch-wise food treatment, enhancing its practicality
- Designed to not degrade food quality, preserving nutritional value
Problems Addressed
- Disease transmission via contaminated food and water, particularly in areas with limited infrastructure
- Dependence on electrical power for sanitation solutions, limiting usability in remote or disaster-affected areas
- Food spoilage and loss in disaster zones or areas without access to conventional preservation methods
Market Applications
- Disaster relief operations where traditional infrastructure is compromised
- Remote locations without access to reliable electrical power
- Refugee camps requiring efficient and safe food and water sanitation solutions
- Non-electric sanitation applications for extending food storage longevity in various settings
