SunDWater
Solar Powered Water Purification For The World
Access to clean water is a human right
Health
Waterborne diseases are the world's leading killer
Empowerment
Eliminating the daily need of searching for clean water will allow those affected the ability to pursue other ventures
Sustainability
SunD's solar powered design creates an energy neutral product that is capable of purifying 250L of water per 10 hours of sunlight. This allows us to solve a problem without creating a new one
Creating Opportunities
Eliminating the task of finding clean drinking water enables the target populations to seek other opportunities such as education and employment
Truly Solar Powered
Sundwater utilizes natural resources to power the unit and purify contaminated water
Ease of Implementation
No added infrastructure is needed in order to have a fully functional SunD unit. Additionally, the initial setup is extremely simple and can be completed by the SunD team. In three years of operation at the Arava Institute there have been zero malfunctions
Curable Diseases
Waterborne diseases are the number one causes of death in the entire world. 350K children under the age of five die from these diseases annually. These diseases can be eliminated with the implementation of a SunD unit
Operation
The SunD unit has a heliostatic design which will follow the sun for optimal exposure. Activating a machine is as simple as pressing a few buttons. Owners can operate it remotely. Daily maintenance is a simple two step process that can be accomplished easily
High Volume and Scalability
One sunD unit is capable of purifying 250/L of water per-10 hours of sunlight. Its design allows us to create scalable and customizable solution for the target population. 20 units would generate 5/L of clean water per person in a town of 1000 people
News And Press
The latest water-tech idea out of Israel is a solar device that provides clear drinking water with no need for infrastructure or electricity.
The Jerusalem-based SunDwater, whose standalone system harnesses heat through concentrated solar power, now has two fully operational pre-production models purifying water in the Arava Desert.
The project was aimed at development and optimization of a stand-alone fully automated water distillation unit with no infrastructure or external energy source required. The project converted unsafe or salt water into potable water for human consumption or irrigation. The unique, environmentally friendly distiller solution based on the CSP (concentrated solar power) technology was built in the CREEC Research Park.
The focus is ‘soft’ technology -- decentralized, simple to use and maintain, and consuming little energy.
