Solar Water

Water Purification Tool

According to the WHO, 2.2 billion people worldwide lack access to clean and safe water. Unsafe water quality can lead to various diseases. Solar Water is heated by solar light and results in condensation in a closed container to distill clean water from dirty water. Users only need to fill the container with river water and then wait for a period, the water evaporates and condenses as clean potable water. Solar water is inexpensive, environmentally friendly, and suitable for large-scale application to solve the problem of unsafe water in poor areas.

JURY STATEMENT

This ingenious solar-powered device is designed to produce clean drinking water for the world's poorest communities. It requires no external energy source nor material input (except for sand), and is made from robust recyclable PC plastic.

WINNER STATEMENT

We are honored to win iF DESIGN TALENT AWARD. Our team will continue to design for human. Meanwhile, We would like to thank all participants, we have learned a lot from their works. Honestly, without them, it may be difficult for us to get inspiration and eventually be a winner.
