Duke University Hospital’s Disaster Medical Response Program now has a water filtration system in a truck trailer, according to the Duke website.
The water filtration truck is a rare asset in the state’s disaster response system and could help keep essential facilities running in case of an emergency, the article said.
The truck was built to be deployed with the field medical hospital and to support medical facilities within the region.
It can pump out 2,400 gallons of potable water every hour. All the truck needs is somebody to set it up and a water source.
