LillyPad – A solar power floating water purifier
Beaverton-based Puralytics had earned a fame for its solar powered water purifier called SolarBag. The invention received a warm welcome in third world countries where clean drinking water is scarce. Already, about 60 countries are being benefited from SolarBag.
However, the engineers are now looking to capture commercial market with bigger equipment with larger water-cleaning capability. The man made ponds, natural lakes, catchment area, construction waste water, agriculture water etc. could be easily treated to deal with contaminants, micro-bacteria, and toxins.
