# Efficient Water-Purifying Bottles The Ecomo Bottle Can Purify Unsafe Water in 5 Seconds By Ell Smith | Published 2017-08-31 | Eco Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ecomo-bottle References: [incrediblethings](http://incrediblethings.com/products/savelife-smartest-water-bottle/) & [ecomo.io](http://www.ecomo.io/) The Ecomo Bottle answers consumers concerns regarding polluted waters, while serving as a means of instant purification. Polluted waterways have become a nation-wide epidemic, leaving many consumers questioning whether or not their nearby water source is safe. A 2016 Harvard University study discovered unsafe levels of toxic chemicals in drinking water throughout 33 states -- chemicals that are linked to hormonal problems, obesity and cancer. Instead of risking their health to stay hydrated, environmental engineer, Eric Li, developed a smart water bottle that tests water for contamination, quickly purifying the water should those contaminants be found. The complex filtration system takes less that 5 seconds to purify unsafe water, promising consumer convenience in addition to its numerous health benefits. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 5.4/10 - Popularity: 72% | Activity: 83% | Freshness: 8% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Eco](https://www.trendhunter.com/eco) ## Key Themes ### What's Driving This Trend - **Water-purifying Bottles:** Developing portable, eco-friendly, and efficient water-purifying bottles to ensure access to clean water while on-the-go. - **Smart Water Bottles:** Innovating smart water bottles with advanced filtration systems and contamination testing capabilities to ensure water safety. - **Sustainability and Health-conscious Designs:** Designing sustainable and health-conscious water bottles to create awareness and promote environmental and individual health. ### Who This Affects Most - **Consumer Goods:** Integrating efficient water purifying features into conventional consumer products such as water bottles. - **Environmental Engineering:** Exploring the application of technological advancements in environmental engineering to combat drinking water pollution and improve water sanitation systems. - **Healthcare and Wellness:** Collaborating with healthcare and wellness sectors to develop innovative water-purifying solutions to combat the adverse health effects of contaminated water. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Five-in-One Water Filter Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vitaloop-water-filtration-bottle.md) - [Speedy Water Purification Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/grayl-ultrapress.md) - [Low-Cost Water Purifiers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edrop-water-purifier.md) - [Bacteria-Banishing Bottle Caps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-water-bottle-cap.md) - [Collapsible Water Filtration Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/filtration-bottles.md) - [Bacteria-Killing Water Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uvc-selfcleaning-water-bottle.md) - [Powered Pitcher-Style Water Purifiers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/piurify-alchemy.md) - [Self-Cleaning Water Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halo-smart-water-bottle.md) - [Compatibly Compact Water Filters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/compact-water-filter.md)
