Dubbed the H2O Cycle, the water purifier is designed to remove contaminants from water, by using two processes in a single package. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.instablogsimages.com\/images\/2009\/12\/14\/h2o-cycle_2_pv7W3_69.jpg\" alt=\"h2o cycle_2\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The first process, called Sodis, is a sun-powered process, which makes use of UV-A rays to remove pathogens. In the second process, water is boiled to produce steam. During vaporization, all solid contaminants are removed and vapor is condensed to produce potable water. Finally, the active carbon filter is able to eliminate all odors found in contaminated water. <\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.instablogsimages.com\/images\/2009\/12\/14\/h2o-cycle_3_e1mJv_69.jpg\" alt=\"h2o cycle_3\"\/><\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/www.instablogsimages.com\/images\/2009\/12\/14\/h2o-cycle_4_P889R_69.jpg\" alt=\"h2o cycle_4\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Thanks: [<strong><em>Diego Andres Martinez<\/em><\/strong>]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Eco Factor: Solar-powered water purification system.
