Salt Water To Drinking Water Machine

Creating clean drinking water on your boat and while cruising is a necessity.

Salt water to drinking water machine.

There are several ways of removing salt from water and turning it into drinking water. In one day this machine can filter 2 100 gallons of water. It could help address the world s looming water crisis. By inexpensively turning salt water into drinking water using sustainable solar power a team from mit in the us has not only come up with a portable desalination system for use anywhere in the world that needs it but it s just won the 2015 desal prize a competition run by usaid to encourage better solutions to water shortages in developing countries.

The mit team developed a solar powered water desalination system that uses the sun s energy to turn brackish liquid into contaminant free water safe for drinking and for crops. In some areas salt water from the ocean for instance is being turned into freshwater for drinking. That may seem as easy as just boiling some seawater in a pan capturing the steam and condensing it back into water. According to mechanical engineer amos winter working on the project both electrodialysis and reverse osmosis require the use of membranes but those in an electrodialysis system are exposed to lower pressures and can be cleared of salt buildup simply by reversing the electrical polarity.

Desalination is the process of removing salt from saltwater which might be necessary due to a lack of clean drinking water in your area. Water tanks can only hold so much water and restricted space onboard may preclude you from carrying enough water for your needs.

Watermakers for boats looks at the various options for boaters. A solar powered system can turn salt water into fresh drinking water for 25 000 people per day. The simple hurdle that must be overcome to turn seawater into freshwater is to remove the dissolved salt in seawater.
