The Lifesaver bottle is a portable water purification device. The bottle filters out objects larger than 15 nanometres. ==Development== After the 2004 Asian Tsunami and Hurricane Katrina disaster in the U.S., Michael Pritchard, a water-treatment expert in Ipswich, England began to develop the Lifesaver bottle after hearing the idea from Dr. Zackary Kepes and Austin Castellano. Pritchard presented a prototype of the Lifesaver at 2007's DSEi London, where the product was named "Best Technological Development".〔 Pritchard's entire stock of 1,000 bottles sold out within four hours of the presentation.〔 Speaking at TED in 2009, Pritchard estimated that by using the Lifesaver bottle, reaching the Millennium Development Goals of halving the number of people without drinking water will cost $8 billion; while $20 billion would provide drinking water for everyone on Earth.
