# Aftermarket UV-C Water Purifiers The 'Nuvoe' Water Purification Device Neutralizes Germs and More By Michael Hemsworth | Published 2020-12-08 | Tech Source: Trend Hunter, https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nuvoe-water-purification-device References: [yankodesign](https://www.yankodesign.com/2020/12/07/this-water-purifier-fits-right-inside-your-drinking-bottle-giving-you-fresh-water-with-each-sip/?utm_source=feedburner&utm_medium=feed&utm_campaign=Feed%3A+yankodesign+%28Yanko+Design+-+Form+Beyond+Function%29) & [kickstarter](https://www.kickstarter.com/projects/nuvoe/nuvoe-the-water-purification-upgrade-for-your-bottle?ref=xn3azz) The 'Nuvoe' water purification device is a cleverly designed piece of technology that will enable a person to clean the water they drink using their existing portable water vessel. The device works with an accompanying magnetic component that will sit on the outside of the bottle and keep the purifier in place when dropped into the vessel. Shaking the bottle will then activate the cleaning capability and neutralize all of the germs, viruses and bacteria that could be lurking. The 'Nuvoe' water purification device maintains a simple, non-invasive design that is powered with [UV-C light](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smartlid) and can be recharged thanks to the internal battery pack to have it ready for a full 30 days of use. This makes it perfect for enhancing existing [reusable water bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vlnd) that are notorious for being a breeding ground for bacteria. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.7/10 - Popularity: 97% | Activity: 94% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Millennial, Gen X - Top markets: Asia ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Tech](https://www.trendhunter.com/tech) > [Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/gadgets) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Aftermarket UV-C Water Purifiers:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop advanced UV-C water purifiers that can be easily added to existing water vessels. - **Magnetic Water Purification Devices:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Create magnetic components that can be attached to water bottles to activate water purification capabilities. - **Portable Rechargeable UV-C Purifiers:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Design compact and rechargeable UV-C purifiers for on-the-go use with existing reusable water bottles. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Water Purification:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Introduce innovative water purification solutions that can enhance the existing reusable water bottle market. - **Consumer Electronics:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Develop portable and rechargeable water purification devices that incorporate advanced UV-C technology. - **Health and Wellness:** Disruptive innovation opportunity: Explore water purification devices that neutralize germs and bacteria to promote healthier drinking habits. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [Bacteria-Killing Water Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/uvc-selfcleaning-water-bottle.md) - [Water Purifier Devices](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ladislamp-disinfection.md) - [Bacteria-Banishing Bottle Caps](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/smart-water-bottle-cap.md) - [Diminutive Water Disinfection Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/water-disinfection-system.md) - [Portable UVC Air Disinfectors](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/nuvo.md) - [UV-C LED Water Purifiers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/aquisense-pearlaqua-deca-30c.md) - [Self-Cleaning Water Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/halo-smart-water-bottle.md) - [Five-in-One Water Filter Bottles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/vitaloop-water-filtration-bottle.md) - [Low-Cost Water Purifiers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/edrop-water-purifier.md)
