PUR Purifier of Water - 04/13/10 06:34 PM
Just found this forum (bought a Ritter knife), and noticed it doesn't seem like anyone has heard about this product. It contains a flocculant (drops particles out of suspension) and a disinfectant. I've talked to a few people that have used it in relief work in Haiti and they say it works amazingly well, even in putrid water, it comes out clear and clean.
Here's a couple of links, first to their site, and second to a couple of CDC pages about it.

Seems to me it might make a better choice in survival kits than simple chlorine tablets.
