Personal water purification systems

摘要

Low volume, personal water purification systems including cartridges containing multi-valent iodine resins, granulated active carbons, and porous separation and filtration means. In one assembly, a first section of a multi-sectioned cartridge includes an inlet, a mouthpiece and a coupler. A second section includes mating coupling means and each section includes separate filtration and/or purification media. In other assemblies, cartridges of a variety of filtration/purification organizations mount within squeezable, vented housings including straws or self-sealing outlet ports. In still other assemblies, the cartridges couple to a manifold housing.
