People, families, communities, especially in areas affected by water scarcity need a drinking water solution that is simple, affordable, robust and easy to use. SolarDew started with these basic user requirements to develop a novel solar water purification and desalination technology. It can produce clean drinking water from seawater in a single step simply by evaporating and condensating water through a membrane. SolarDew’s products can be rapidly deployed as a compact, inflatable product after a natural disaster or as a permanent source of drinking water for households and communities. With these products, people can directly purify their local ground water thus becoming more independent and healthier, whilst saving time and money.
