We looked into the use of sari cloth filtration when we explored methods to use when constructing slow sand filters for an EWB project, where we needed to effectively sieve the media so that it had the right particle size <span style="font-style:italic">distribution</span>. The information we had available to us concerned just mechanical filtration aspects:</span></div>

But the bottom line is that locally available materials/methods worked for them in Bangladesh, and now the addition of heating the water afterwards can lead to even further improvements in the approach's efficacy.</div>
