The floating panel can turn contaminated water or polluted seawater into both drinking water and clean, hydrogen fuel. The device works off-grid so could prove useful in places with limited resources.
A Water pyramid or WaterPyramid is a village-scale solar still, designed to distill water using solar energy for remote communities without easy access to clean, fresh water. It provides a means whereby communities can produce potable drinking water from saline , brackish or polluted water sources.
Barefoot College, previously known as the Social Work and Research Centre ("SWRC") [1] is a voluntary organisation working in the fields of education, skill development, health, drinking water, women empowerment and electrification through solar power for the upliftment of rural people, [2] which was founded by Bunker Roy in 1972.
Solar water disinfection, in short SODIS, is a type of portable water purification that uses solar energy to make biologically-contaminated (e.g. bacteria, viruses, protozoa and worms) water safe to drink. Water contaminated with non-biological agents such as toxic chemicals or heavy metals require additional steps to make the water safe to drink.
Researchers have invented a solar-powered device capable of extracting several litres of water from thin air in a single day. The new self-sustaining technology could provide a lifeline for people ...
The Sahara Forest Project aims to provide fresh water, food and renewable energy in hot, arid regions as well as re-vegetating areas of uninhabited desert.
