The minister of Sierra Leone visited our PurAID project in Ghana

Content

On April 7, 2022, the Minister for Water Resources in Sierra Leone, Ing. PK Lansana, visited our PurAID® installation in Akim Wenchi, Ghana. The issue of untreated wastewater and poor-quality drinking water is a serious problem in Sierra Leone as well.

The country's leadership is seeking the best solutions to reduce surface and groundwater pollution, and illnesses caused by contaminated drinking water and to improve sanitation. The ministry intends to decrease the country's ecological footprint, thereby contributing to Africa's Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs).

In 2021, the Minister also visited the Planet Budapest Sustainability Expo and Summit to learn first-hand about the achievements and references of the internationally known and recognised Hungarian water industry. During personal discussions and negotiations with the Minister, we presented to Ing. PK Lansana and his professional delegation the PurAID® compact mobile water purification system based on modular units, which was developed for the purification of contaminated drinking water for people living in rural and isolated areas.

Following the Planet, technical discussions continued, and because of these preparations, the Minister traveled to Ghana in April to visit our first PurAID® pilot project in Ghana. The system is to remove iron, manganese, and bacteria from municipal well water. The trial run will soon be completed. The device has a capacity of 10,000 liters per day, providing 12,000 local people with safe, clean, potable water.

We are confident that as a result of our successful work in Africa, and the strong economic diplomacy support provided by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, modern drinking water treatment solutions will be installed in Sierra Leone in the coming years.

Intro

Our last research for CERN was to develop a technology that allows the splices of low-temperature superconducting cables to be in a superconducting state as well, meaning that no voltage is applied to them.

Intro

Our first project in Ghana, the trial operation of our PurAID® modular, mobile, pallet-based water purification equipment installed in the settlement of Akim Wenchi, has been successfully completed. With the help of PurAID®, iron and manganese impurities, as well as disease-causing bacteria, are removed from the water of the public wells of the town of 12,000 inhabitants.
