Check out this world's first ultra filtration water bottle system. This Lifesaver bottle can filter out bacteria, viruses, parasites, fungi and all other microbiological waterborne pathogens. The concept behind it is relatively simple, based upon the simple fact that the smallest virus is 25 nanometers across, designing a filter with holes that are only 15 nanometers across ensures that all of the bad stuff gets filtered effectively without the use of chemicals.
The real beauty resides on the simplicity of the bottle. To use, just fill the bottle by filler the base. Once filled just pump the water through the filter a few times and then the clean water can be directly drunk or poured into a separate container from the other end. Can't get any simpler than that eh? Definitely helps for those third world countries.

The filter is replaceable (not sure if it's recyclable) and can treat about 4000 liters of water (a good 5 years of supply). The filter is also able to filter 750ml of water just under a minute so that's a great perk to know.
These bad boys are pretty pricey though. Expect to pay well over $400 but just keep in mind that this is an one of a kind unit so once other companies begin developing similar units the price will definitely drop.
