That would be pretty worthless as a water filter, it would take you forever to filter enough to even get a swallow.
Rules are written in the stone,
Break the rules and you get no bones,
all you get is ridicule, laughter,
and a trip to the house of pain.

Re: 0.2um filters for water purification
A 0.2 *m filter will get rid of most of bugs but it is not 100% for bacteria. But like streaker said it will be a lot of work to get a drink. i can't tell by the pic how big it is but i will guess 1/2-3/4 inch max. and they fit on the end of a syringe. I use these often in lab but just for small samples. You would wear your thumb out for a cup of water.

Re: 0.2um filters for water purification
My well produces muddy, iron-laden, sulfur tasting water.
I start with a 5 micron string filter, then a 1 micron filter, then a water softner, then a chlorine tablet injection system, then a charcoal filter.
Good water comes out of my tap.American by BIRTH, Infidel by CHOICE
