Catchment and water distillation

Among the productive activities in the sea, we have developed in its initial stages, are the distillation of exploiting solar energy water (we have tested a variety of designs Shop distillation, vacuum quickly add), and harvesting of rainwater during the rainy season using plastic floating on the sea and other surfaces. In both cases, we store the water in black plastic bags floating semi-submerged. The possibilities are enormous and we invite you to join us in this effort to bring fresh water from the sea in large quantities at low cost.

Our previous work is summarize in an article in the journal Agronomía Costarricense:
