1 An Evaluation of Household Drinking Water Treatment Systems in Peru: The Table Filter and the Safe Water System Brittany Coulbert Spring 2005 Based on Coulbert s MIT M.Eng. thesis of the same title (Feb. 2005)
2 Peru Project Site: La Joya, Arequipa
3 The Peru Team
4 The Water Problem 1.1 billion people lack access to safe drinking water 1.7 million people die each year from diarrheal diseases related to unsafe water, sanitation, and hygiene Fact source: WHO, 2004 Picture source: Susan Murcott, MIT
5 The Problem in Peru 50% of Peru s 28.4 million people live below the poverty line GDP per capita: $5,000 In 2002, Peru had only 66% improved drinking water coverage in rural areas Improved does not mean safe. It may simply indicate a household connection or protected well. (With this definition, this report evaluates almost entirely households with improved access to drinking water, even before treatment.) Source: WHO Joint Monitoring Programme, CIA World Factbook
6 The Solution UN Millennium Development Goal: Halve, by 2015 [as compared to 1990], the proportion of people without sustainable access to safe drinking water and basic sanitation. WHO International Network to Promote Household Water Treatment and Safe Storage This report is part of the effort by MIT and members of the Network to seek ways to increase access to safe water for people worldwide through efforts including household water treatment systems (HWTS) and safe water storage.
7 The Technologies The Table Filter The Safe Water System
8 Safe Water System Outline Tests & results from Peru Table Filter Tests & results from Peru and the MIT lab Household interviews Cost comparison & financing options
9 Study of HWTS Solutions as Currently Implemented in Peru Field Study in southern Peru, mostly in La Joya, Arequipa January 2004 Tested Safe Water Systems (household chlorination) & Table Filters in homes Interviewed users MIT Lab Study February - July 2004 Tested 2 Table Filters with different grades of sand Also tested Table Filters without sand
10 Regions of Study: Arequipa & Tacna (focused in Cerrito Buena Vista, near La Joya, Arequipa) Lima Arequipa Tacna
11 Safe Water System (Household Chlorination)
12 Safe Water System (SWS) 20-L safe storage containers ( bidones ) 0.5% sodium hypochlorite solution generated at a local hospital & distributed to towns in 200-mL bottles Users add half cap of solution to 20 L of water stored in safe storage containers and wait 30 minutes before drinking
13 Chlorine Generator Electricity + Water + Salt = Chlorine solution
14 Family in Peru using their Safe Water System
15 Safe Water System Tests E.coli & Total Coliform (TC) tests These bacteria indicate the presence of fecal contamination, which can cause severe diarrheal sicknesses Zero E.coli or TC colony forming units (CFU) should be present in any drinking water sample Chlorine residual tests Chlorinated water sources should have a residual amount of chlorine to ensure that the chlorine dose was enough to deactivate all harmful bacteria
16 E.coli Concentrations Before & After SWS Chlorination in Peru E.coli CFU/100ml Log Scale 1.E+05 1.E+04 1.E+03 1.E+02 1.E+01 1.E % reduction of E.coli by SWS B-11 E-3 H-12 C - 7 LL - 18 LL - 27 M - 8 I - 1 LL - 22 House ID E.coli Raw E.coli SWS Treated

19 Pros & Cons of the SWS Pros 99.6% E.coli removal 95% TC removal Very inexpensive: $6 container + $3/year Easy to use Local chlorine generation possible Cons Less effective with turbid source water (particle removal pre-treatment is needed) Average chlorine residual was found to be too low Chlorine solution sometimes difficult to obtain due to poor technical support People don t like the taste

FSTF Avg. Date Source MSTF FSTF
34 Table Filters Tested Without Sand The two Table Filters showed slightly different results on average. Since sand grain size was the only known difference between the two, the sand was removed from the filters before additional testing to see if the grain size was the true reason for the differences in % removal (as opposed to unexpected differences in the ceramic candles).
35 TTC Concentrations Before & After Filtration without Sand TTC [CFU/100ml] LOG Scale 1.E+04 1.E+03 1.E+02 1.E+01 97% reduction of TTC by MSTF w/o Sand 99% reduction of TTC by FSTF w/o Sand 1.E+00 MSTF Avg. FSTF Avg. June 30 July 1 July 2 Date Source MSTF FSTF

39 Why Only 23% Reduction of TC by MSTF w/o Sand? The low average % removal of TC by the MSTF was caused by one day of testing which showed that the TC concentration in the treated water was higher than that of the untreated water (June 30). Valid data could not be collected from the water treated by the FSTF, so the two filters could not be compared on that day. Therefore, the average values and % removals of the two TFs without sand are not truly comparable to each other for the TC tests.

42 Sand Grain Size Theory The coliform tests performed on Table Filters without sand did not support the theory that the sand grain size affected the performance of the filters. Our Peruvian teammates sifting sand for a Table Filter
43 Turbidity Indicates amount of suspended particles in water, or its cloudiness Average % removal of turbidity by Table Filters: Peru: 70% MIT: Medium Sand TF: 91% Fine Sand TF: 92%
44 Pros & Cons of the Table Filter Pros Average % removal of TC in Peru = 98% Average % removal of turbidity at MIT = 92% Provides relatively consistent and significantly improved drinking water Inexpensive: $11.40 each Easy to use Cons Broken spigots Cleaning is bothersome Fragile ceramic candles Parts not easily available Sand sifting (during filter assembly) is timeconsuming More expensive than other treatment methods
45 Interviews 89 households surveyed 35 had Table Filters 49 had Safe Water Systems 5 had neither 66 were from Arequipa (57 from CBV) 23 were from Tacna
46 Interview Statistics Households averaged 5.2 people, including 1.3 children under the age of 5 Average total household* spending was S/ 93 (Peruvian nuevo soles) per month (or $0.58 per person per day) * Of the 84 households with government-sponsored water treatment systems

52 Cost Comparison of Each Treatment Option Water Treatment Option Capital Cost O&M Costs / year Total 10- Year Cost Table Filter $6.40 $5 $56 Safe Water System $9.80 $3 $40 Table Filter + SWS $16.20 $8 $96 Water Treatment Plant (w/ piped system, per family of 5) $475 $36 $835 The capital cost of a Table Filter is low because the initial purchase of ceramic candles is included in the O&M costs.
53 # of Respondents Willingness to Pay for a Table Filter by Current Filter Owners (Average Offer: S/25) Average offer: S/ 25 ($7.1) Price Willing to Pay [Soles ] Actual capital cost of Table Filter: S/ 40 ($11.4)
54 Willingness-to-Pay Household surveys indicate that the target population may be willing to pay about half the capital cost of each system How does the program then cover costs?
55 Recommendation for Payment and Financing Options Government (Ministry of Health) and/or outside aid organizations contribute some % of cost or pay for large initial costs (like a $1,400 chlorine generator) Cheaper treatment options are explored or implemented (e.g., chlorine or SODIS) HWTS recipients pay in monthly installments
56 Proposed Monthly Payment Plan for Each Treatment Option (assuming each user must cover 100% of capital and O&M costs) Monthly payment over 12 months Table Filter S/ 3.5 ($1) Safe Water S/ 4 System Table Filter + SWS ($1.1) S/ 7 ($2) Monthly payment over 24 months S/ 2.5 ($0.7) S/ 2.5 ($0.7) S/ 4.5 ($1.3) Approx. monthly O&M after capital is paid off S/ 1.5 ($0.4) S/ 0.9 ($0.25) S/ 2.5 ($0.7)
57 Recommendation: Filtration plus Chlorination is best! Filtration by a Table Filter helps remove the turbidity in water that would make chlorination less effective Chlorination and safe water storage by the Safe Water System kills any bacteria that remain after filtration and protects against recontamination
