Watercone low cost solar water purifier

Watercone low cost solar water purifier

Watercone is a smart device that can separate salt from salty water and produce fresh water. It was designed by BMW designer Stephan Augustin. The structure of this device is simple, so long as there is sunlight, this small device can work. The principle is to rely on the natural physical phenomena of solar energy and water vapor. After seawater is injected, the water vapor will be concentrated under high heat, and the salt in seawater can be filtered. Therefore, about 1.6 liters of drinking water can be obtained in one day, so it is very easy and cheap to make it.

The most prominent of the Watercone is its conical appearance. You can cover it on a flat pan with salt water. You can also cover it in a marsh or wet land, under the sun, as the water evaporates. The water vapor condensed on the conical hood and flowed down the hood and collected in a groove at the bottom of the conical hood. In the evening, you quickly reverse the cone cover and unscrew the lid on top of it to collect the fresh water.

The advantage of this device is that it can benefit a large number of people. For example, those who live in groundwater contaminated with salt, those that do not have enough water (South Pacific, Sub-Saharan Africa, Middle East, etc.). Water cones are made of UV-resistant plastic, which has a five-year lifespan, after which it can be turned over as a funnel to collect rainwater.

If the energy of this product is produced, the problem of lack of drinking water for Africa, South America and other coastal areas will be able to be solved. Of course, marine adventurers do not need to carry too much drinking water. The price is only 30 US dollars.
