KANPUR: Indian Institute of Technology – Kanpur (IIT-K)-incubated startups, Earthface Analytics and Kritsnam Technologies, have developed a device, “PADMAVATI”, for analyzing and monitoring water quality. A colorimetric test strip, based on smartphone technology, monitors water quality by screening several critical water quality parameters in less than two minutes.
The innovation allows for cost-effective, easy to run, eco-friendly analysis of multiple water parameters and offers a centralized data management system. The liquid quality measurement system enables the masses to tackle field-level to household-level water contamination problems with an on-site, inexpensive, smart water quality monitoring device.
IIT-K, in a statement on Wednesday, July 15, said the present innovation will resolve water quality monitoring challenges by creating an easy-to-use colorimetric test-strip based smart-phone technology which instantaneously screens many significant water quality parameters.
