The conceptual 'WaterPod' floating desalination system is a modern solution for helping to make access to potable water easier for those who live in developing communities. The system is characterized by its floating construction that would allow it to be placed on the surface of the ocean in as large or small of an orientation as required for the community. The units would then draw water up into the reservoir and utilize the natural power of the sun to create drinking water that could then be harvested by the community.
The conceptual 'WaterPod' floating desalination system is the design work of Bennie Beh Hue May, Yap Chun Yoon and Loo Xin Yang, and was developed in response to a lack of potable water in Sandakan, Malaysia.
