Ceramic water filters (CWFs) are decentralized water treatment technologies commonly
used in resource-restricted geographies. Inclusion of silver nanoparticles (AgNP) assists …

Diarrheal illnesses claim the lives of hundreds of thousands of children each year, most of
whom live in rural and low-income communities. Ceramic Water Filters (CWF) are widely …

Locally produced ceramic water filters (CWF) are an effective technology to treat pathogen-
contaminated drinking water at the household level. CWF manufacturers apply silver to …

BACKGROUND Point‐of‐use filtration units often incorporate silver as a disinfection aid.
However, system performance and robustness may be increased by considering co …

Applying silver nanoparticles (nAg) or silver nitrate (AgNO 3) to ceramic water filters
improves microbiological efficacy, reduces biofilm formation, and protects stored water from …

Application of silver nanoparticles (nAg) or silver nitrate (AgNO3) has been shown to
improve the microbiological efficacy of ceramic water filters used for household water …

Pathogen removal efficacy of ceramic water filters (CWF) impregnated with silver
nanoparticles (nAg) has been well studied, however scarce information is available about …

The synergistic potential of silver and zinc oxide nanoparticles for water disinfection was
investigated herein. By causing cell death through membrane interactions, oxidative killing …

In this study, we report on field testing of ceramic water filters (CWFs) fabricated using a new
method of silver application (using silver nitrate as a raw material) compared to …

This research examined how variations in synthesis methods of silver nanoparticles affect
both the release of silver from ceramic water filters (CWFs) and disinfection efficacy. The …
