Eco Factor: Portable water desalinating device harness wave energy for power.
For all those who love to spend their weekends on salty waters, here’s a precious addition to your gear. The Rewave water desalinating device by Yu-Hong Chen helps you convert seawater into potable water. In addition to being a valued addition to your outdoor gear, the device can also be used in disaster situations where fresh water is not readily available.
The device floats on water and harnesses the energy from the waves to power itself. The device carries an aperture at its bottom and allows seawater to get through the motor area. After the process is complete, fresh water accumulates at the top and comes out via a pipe.
The designer believes that the filters will need regular replacement, but since they’ll be made from recycled materials, they shouldn’t be expensive.
