Arsenic removal filter developed at IIT Bombay (IITB Product) involves the cooxidation of Fe(II) and As(III) in the presence of dissolved oxygen and subsequent arsenic removal by hydrous ferric oxide, which is formed from oxidation of Fe(II) naturally present in groundwater and from leaching of iron nails, thus As(III) oxidation is achieved without addition of any chemicals. This filter can be fabricated by local plumbers and masons in field using locally available materials. The unit is cost-effective and robust, does not require extensive monitoring.

 The mobile unit will take care of the problem of fresh cane availability by eliminating the problem of cane transportation. The quality of jaggery significantly depends on the cane quality (the fresher the better).
