This amazing device called the ‘Haitian Desal-A-Nation’ – which hints at desalination is what this equipment precisely performs. This device is actually a water distiller that produces potable water by evaporated salt water from the sea by using solar energy. The evaporated water passes through a channel that leads the steam inside another small chamber wherein it condenses to produce clean drinking water.

The device is a very simple flat jar that contains salt water and has a black outer covering. Above this is the other smaller container in which the clean water gets collected. The distiller does not require any form of electricity and is dependent on the sun’s heat to evaporate the salt water. This project was inspired by the goal of the UN to provide sustainable access to potable water.
