A device for the purification of water and methods for the use thereof are disclosed. The device comprises a closed container substantially porous to water, a purification agent contained therein and an ingredient dispersed in the purification agent for the purpose of inhibiting fine particles of the agent from escaping the container when the device is immersed in water. The disclosed inhibitory ingredients include certain modified starches, wood flour and aluminium lanolate soap. The device is especially useful in removing incipient impurities from drinking water that can elude customary water treatment and render drinking water organoleptically unsatisfactory.

Water purification device

This application relates generally to the provision of an apparatus for the dispensing of a laundry additive into an automatic washing machine at the proper interval. More specifically, the present application relates to the provision of an apparatus that will introduce a laundry additive into the rinse cycle of an automatic washing machine, which apparatus is disposable upon completion of use.
