<p> As of 2002, 1.1 billion people worldwide lacked access to drinking water that met the WHO guidelines for safe water quality. Of these, 1.6 million per year die from diarrheal diseases, and at least another 1.5 million contract viral hepatitis A. The WHO <a href="http://www.who.int/water_sanitation_health/mdg1/en/index.html">identifies</a> sub-Saharan Africa as a particular region of the world where access to "improved" drinking water is lacking and likely to miss the WHO's Millennium Development Goal by 2015.</p>
<p>The technology produced under this commitment will work toward solving the problem of insufficient access to safe drinking water beginning with the household level. Even if the larger water supply is compromised or unsafe, the device proposed here will be able to disinfect drinking water at the point of use. As the technology is developed further and becomes more efficient, it may be possible to scale it to larger community- or municipal-level water supplies.</p>
<p> The lack of clean drinking water is not the only issue plaguing developing countries. Many still lack the sanitation infastructure to dcope with problems, such as dirty linens, medical instruments, and wounds. In principle, ambient-gas plasma technology can be used for a wide variety of sanitation applications. Here is a conceptual rendering of a "one-stop plasma shop" which can pontentially address all these issues.</p>

<p> Sanitized reservoirs could be used to store plasma-disinfected water prior to drinking. This can be coupled with a rain water collection system keeping with our theme of self-sufficency.</p>
