A call for Mindstorming- Affordable Cholera prevention!

Filtering Cholera with old sari- the original article
A great article, that probably saved a lot of life,

I hope to spread and use this knowledge in Zimbabwe, to help the locals avoid Cholera by using affordable and common matereals.
Anyone with an Idea how to improve this method is VERY invited to comment and share his/her ideas here.
Has anyone an idea how to harnass Ultra Violet (UV) rays for aid in annihilation of the bacteria?
I thought about somehow using the sun, but have yet to find a cheap and affordable method for resourceless places like many poor areas in Zimbabwe and elsewhere in the world.
