ABSTRACT:
A bottle water disinfectant, storage, and dispensing system for purifying drinking water or the like. The preferred embodiment of the present invention contemplates a bottle water dispensing system having an inlet line, a storage tank, a filter area, and a dispensing port, wherein there is provided the steps of infusing water flowing into the storage tank with a disinfecting medium such as iodine, chlorine or the like, allowing the infused water to remain in the storage tank for a period of time to allow the disinfecting medium present in the stored water to kill all microbes and the like in the water, and selectively dispensing the stored water, including the further steps of filtering the disinfectant medium and remaining contaminants from the stored water. The present invention is taught for use in conjunction with a bottle water system having a wide neck, as such an arrangement allows for the non-pressurized, gravity flow of the stored water having the disinfection agent through filtration system placed in conjunction with the wide neck. Such an embodiment would be beneficial for use in Third World Countries or the like, wherein pressurized water is unavailable, and wherein water could be dumped directly into an inlet area via buckets or the like.
