SIMPLE IRON MATRIX FILTER

The Simple Iron Matrix (SIM) team is working on designing and testing a filter prototype aimed at removing arsenic from highly arsenic contaminated water in Carrancas, Peru. The team is using rusted steel as the medium to remove arsenic and is building off of filter technology used for arsenic remediation in Bangladesh. The team has supplied locals with the tools necessary to conduct their own investigations into easy SIM design and use.
