MSU students work to make clean water more accessible in developing world

Emanuele Berry/WKAR

Earlier this year, Current State welcomed John Barrie from the Appropriate Technology Collaborative to Studio S. He explained that the collaborative  creates new technologies to improve the quality of life in developing countries worldwide. The organization also collaborates with universities. This year, a team of Michigan State Engineering students worked to build a water purification system for low income countries. Two of the MSU students who worked on the project, Grant Golasa and Shenli Pei, tell Current State that this technology is already in use in Guatamala, but others around the world are also gaining access to the technology.
