Could the LIFESAVER bottle or jerrycan be used to filter and drink urine?
You can filter urine with the
LIFESAVER bottle or the LIFESAVER jerrycan and it will remove all microbiological contamination
however as there is a certain amount of salt in urine the resulting
water will have a level of salt dissolved into it that the LIFESAVER
bottle will not remove. This will increase as the urine is repeatedly
filtered.
We
suggest that you could potentially do this up to four times before the
salt levels become dangerous. However it is recommend that you seek
alternate water sources before using the LIFESAVER bottle in this way.
