Provision of safe and adequate drinking water to rural community is a Herculian task since majority of the population live in rural areas in India. Realising the need for providing adequate water supply, Govt. of India has set a target to cover hundred percent population both rural and urban, by the year 2010. With the limited financial resources and other constraints, it is of vital importance to develop new appropriate technologies, which are economically viable, scientifically sound, technologically feasible and socially acceptable.
