hy friend! here is your answer
Portable water purification devices – better described as point-of-use (POU) water treatment systems and field water disinfection techniques – are self-contained, usually hand-carried units used by recreational enthusiasts, military personnel, survivalists and people without access to water supply services in developing countries for water purification when they need to obtain drinking water from untreated sources (e.g. rivers, lakes, groundwater etc.). These personal devices and methods aim to render water potable (i.e. safe and palatable for drinking purposes – without disease-causing pathogens).

Answer:
Therefore potable water is defined as the water that can be considered safe for drinking. Potable water which is available has already passed through the water purification process by factories or by treating it with chemicals to remove the harmful microorganisms.
