Details
The nano-tap is an innovative drinking water filtration system designed to improve water quality directly at the point of use. It uses an advanced, biobased and chemical-free filtration technology to effectively reduce PFAS and TFAS, bacteria, viruses, heavy metals, microplastics and pharmaceutical residues while preserving essential minerals. Operating without energy consumption and requiring minimal maintenance, the system enables long-term use and significantly reduces plastic waste, transport emissions and resource consumption compared to bottled water, offering a sustainable technology.
The Jury‘s Statement
Clean drinking water is not reliably available in many places, while bottled solutions increase plastic waste and transportation efforts. The nano-tap drinking water purification system demonstrates how water quality can be improved directly in everyday life without creating new dependencies. The solution relies on a minimalist, chemical-free filtration and operates without electricity, allowing it to be used flexibly wherever people need it. This makes reaching for a single-use bottle unnecessary and conserves resources permanently. Particularly convincing is the consistently circular approach: less material consumption, less logistics, more responsibility in the daily handling of water.
