Birgitta’s flush-pod can reduce the risk of Legionnaires’ disease.

Birgitta Olsson of Färgelanda has been awarded the 2008 prize as the year’s Swedish female inventor. Her idea, the Spoldosan (approx. Flush-pod), has been developed into a product with great commercial promise. The flush-pod is meant to be used to rinse away stagnant warm water left in pipes, shower-heads and hoses, etc. By letting the water run through the Flush-pod into the drain, the amount of water vapor in the air is drastically reduced as is the risk of spreading the Legionella bacteria that causes Legionnaires disease.brbr
