What is the reason for not exposing SODIS bottles in a straight position?
If bottles are exposed in an inclined postion then microorganisms are inactivated by double reflection process. In addition to this, problems of displacing the bottles by winds are avoided. But if bottles are exposed in upright position water is not fully exposed to the UV-A radiation decreasing the rate of microbial inactivation . So, it is safe to expose bottles in a slanting position.
