When the devastating 9 point earthquake hit Japan in March, it was evident before very long that there was nuclear contamination released from the damaged reactors in the quake area. That contamination was grossly understated by officials and the news media. The result of the fallout has been devastating in the health of those exposed.
After that event, Pastor Jim Bakker asked Carl Palmer, President and CEO of Seychelle, if it was possible to develop a way to filter out harmful radiation from drinking water in a portable product. The following announcement from Seychelle is in response to Pastor Jim Bakker’s request:
Seychelle is pleased to announce the availability of the first portable radiological filter of its kind in the world that filters 100% of the major contaminants that can be found after a nuclear catastrophe out of drinking water!
People around the world are more concerned than ever about contamination from fallout after a nuclear catastrophe such as what recently occurred in Fukushima, Japan. With ground water contaminated by nuclear elements, the availability of safe drinking water is of primary concern. This concern is now compounded by the fact that 18 countries around the world have 436 nuclear reactors; any number of which could experience a melt-down like Fukushima. A filter system in portable products that could provide safe drinking water under these circumstances could be of great value to people all over the world… and Seychelle has developed such a product!
The new filter removes the five basic zones of contamination: Aesthetic (Chlorine, taste and odor), Biological (Pathogens), Chemicals (from Industry and Agriculture), Dissolved Solids (heavy metals such as lead, mercury, Chromium 6) and 100% Radiological Contaminants such as Radon, Radium, Uranium and Cesium 137. The filter is designed with a hard shell that is formed to exact or 2 micron absolute porosity. The filter is impregnated with various proprietary media that have the ability to remove, absorb, adsorb, chemically bond and chelate different contaminants as they pass through the tortuous path designed in the filter.
The new radiological filter comes in a 28 oz flip-top bottle that is designed to be easily used by every man, woman and child. The insulator sleeve attaches to a belt or backpack. The bottle produces up to 100 gallons of great-tasting filtered water and is equal to 757 half liters of bottled water! It is the ideal emergency preparedness filter system!
The radiological filter is also available for Seychelle’s Water Pitcher. Providing up to 150 gallons of great-tasting filtered water before filter replacement, the Seychelle Water Pitcher makes water all day long whereas other pitchers can be used only twice a day in most circumstances. Streamlined and elegant looking, it fits easily into any refrigerator, and is ideal for R.V. use, camping, boating, and traveling.
