Reduction in the number of new patients of mineral overload disorders owing to consumption of high salinity water. (Expected Target- 20% reduction).
The program is based upon Reverse Osmosis (RO) technique coupled with UV filtration. The present capacity is to filter water at the rate of 1000 liters per hour.
