Industry Description

Each type of pathogen will require its own technology.  Using the definition that states that pathogens may be man-made or may occur as part of Nature, each needs to be neutralized or isolated so as not to cause harm.  Perhaps devices exist that can detect contaminants in air and water but the cost of such devices is too great.  There may be other, less expensive and passive technologies that effectively remove the contaminants without costly detection.  Man-made pathogens may be avoided by only using safe, vetted online resources.
