Selection and Evulation of Point of use Drinking Water Filtration for Colonias in the Paso Del Norte Region

This paper highlights the challenges and potential advantages of Point of Use filtration systems in regions of the works where clean potable water is not readily available. This study considers two areas in Texas, and investigates point of use filtration systems. The objectives of this research are to (1) assess the region?s current water source and its quality, and (2) review commercially available POU filters and identify economically and environmentally sustainable filtration systems.
