Really a very wise conception !!! But it can be improved in several ways. For example adding cardboard or paperboard inside the black bottle ( up to the end of it ); the cardboard will increase substantially the vaporization surface and that will produce more vapor. Also the transparent bottle can be isolated from the sun heat; that will lower it´s temperature and thus increase condensation. Thanks for sharing !!!
Depending on your water source, some volatile liquids will also evaporate and condense with the water, so ideally you need to throw out the first inch or so, then put the cap back on to get the rest. And obviously, be careful not to slosh the dirty water over to the clean water side.
LOVE the creativity!!! Thanks for sharing! The problem I see is that the bottles are plastic and is not healthy when they get hot. Would be wonderful if it was glass.
Можно усовершенствовать, если маленькие бутылки отрезать дно под углом, большей стороной наверх, то поверхность для сбора конденсата увеличится в трое. Так же маленькие бутылки можно воткнуть не строго горизонтально, а опустив горлышко вниз, тогда капли будут стекать быстрее. Конечно, легко совершенствовать, когда есть уже основная, базовая идея) Спасибо)
Put a mylar reflective film behind this in the sun (or near a campfire) and you will have stupendous results. Or have the same device in a metal solar oven (or a cat hole mylar film solar oven) and you'will also have greater results. Pack this in your ruck for bug outs and it will come in very handy.
Yes even I was thinking along the same lines. The first bottle should be a blackbody which could absorb more heat and then place some mirrors to improve efficiency of the apparatus/equipment and also trap the heat entering the 1st bottle.
Muy buena idea ahora te consulto si la botella pintada de oscuro o negro le pusiéramos una manguera a otra botella en la parte más alta en el pico no se obtendría mejores resultados??
Really love your projects Thomas!! In order to increase the yield of distilled water, wouldn't it be better to have a flat(to increase the surface exposed to sun and the surface area of water) rather than vertical set up? Just my thoughts, anyway I LOVE THIS PROJECT!! Please do a LARGER version of this in the future I beg you!! :D
i love that trick simple and easy but the 2 small bottles could of been placed slantways if you catch my drift but you know why you did it that way but am going to try that later😄
They did it this way to collect more usable water without the system back flowing into the original tube. If you point 2 bottles at each other the collector will flow back after a period of time due to the angle needed to prevent contaminated water from flowing into the collection tube. This process allows more water to be processed at once, and allows for the person to not be constantly monitoring the device.
As the water is a transformable material since he can be vaporized by water,it is logical to let him under light. I guess you painted the bottle in black since it absord more light rather than white color? I suggest you to add a interruptor-like object to get water,if you turn it.You know what i mean?I have no idea how it is called. The process to distill is long,I understand with that.Patient is essence.
People would be glad they watched this if one day (heaven forbid) they are shipwrecked on a deserted island with no fresh water. But knowing human kind, you can bet your @ss there’ll be rubbish on the beach including plastic bottles & some black plastic bags (to wrap around one of them)! I for one will keep this in the back of my mind just in case. Thanks!
I get the concept of it, but just don't understand how the evaporated water would move up into the other bottle. Does the evaporated water condense in the transparent tubes that connect the two larger bottles and just fall into the clear bottle to drink? Why doesn't the evaporated water move to the top of the black bottle and then just fall back down again?
I actually would do the process twice to be sure it is, unless boiling, which actually pertains to killing off the contaminated as well. While this process is similar, the temps used for condensation are much lower than actual the actual boiling point, or else we would be living on a very VERY hot planet that we wouldn't be able to go outside as all water would be boiling, including what's in out body. If you do this process and fear contamination, I suggest more than 1 day worth of distilling to reach your desired outcome.
Eme And its funny how you call "emergency situations". Like in all emergency situations you will always have on hand plastic bottles, silicone sealant and black paint. when you have all these at hand I wouldnt call it an emergency situation anymore.
I watch so many videos on how to solar distilled water...... I'm looking for a low-tech solution for a family of 4 you know like a solution for every house on your street. all I'm finding this how to make enough water for your kitty cat.
Probably should use fire to distill a lot of water instead of the head of the sun, but if you have a lot of these things that make small amounts of water, that will make a lot of water.
It is a function of physics. You need approximately 2.36Kwh of heat to evaporate 1 gallon of pure water or a little more depending on impurities. You can expect to receive 0.8 to 1.1Kwh of solar heat per sq meter per hour during 6 to 7 hours of peak summer solar exposure. This works out to roughly 4.8Kwh per very sunny day per square meter. A well aimed solar collector will collect heat at about 60% efficiency or 4.8Kwh * 0.6 = 2.88Kwh of heat per sq meter of system. This would imply that you could produce 2.88 / 2.36 = 1.22 gallons of water per square meter of solar collector. You must also account for thermal losses through parts of the system that are not condensing. In a system like this thermal losses will average about 55%. This would reduce production to about 0.67 gallons per square meter of solar thermal collector per sunny summer day. The assumptions for efficiency, aiming and thermal losses can change the answer but the general formula will remain true.
+Jessica Lin The black paint absorbs heat from the solar rays of the sun. You have to have heat to produce water vapor from the dirty water in the black bottle. That water vapor IS the distilled water.

The UV light also kills remaining bacteria, nice!!
BRAVO! The Junior Survivalist are going crazy mad making this project. And thanks to some of the other viewers tips.

Excellent idea for those who are doing DIY stuff and product innovations.Thanks for sharing !!!
Saved my school project ❤️❤️
Josh Watts you made this? I have a school project but I'm very confused about what to do... Any suggestion? 😂
Does this school project passes from generations to generation like i have it rn 😂
Great, nice system!
Hot plastic bottles will release some chemicals, so the final catch may not be as pure as we think but this is very nice project. Gave thums-up
i was thinking the same thing , using plastic is defeating the process
food grade plastic so dont worry
I would be more worried about the silicone caulk than the PET bottle. Be sure to use the non mold protected kind of silicone!

Innovative design 👍🏻
Cleaner than tap water. Awesome.
Молодец так держать!
Good video for an emergency. Rather use a black metal bottle, copper tubing and a clear glass jar.
Wish you would have put it to the taste test 😊
Great job
Great video
is the spray paint optional?

That's amazing!!
Would this work with salt water from the ocean?
Adam Hulse yes it would ,I just try it
now that was cool

Nice job, did you see the cool image after the painting ?
Do you have to use 2 smaller bottles or would it work with only on, and if so whats does it affect
What is the black water that you pour inside the bottle?
thank you for sharing the idea
Very nice
What did you use to seal it together? Was it a non toxic substance?
Glue not readily available in the boondocks.
what is your engredients about this preject?
How long did it take to make just that little amount
otimo video. Depois de quanto tempo aquela quantidade de água foi destilada?
ele escreveu que 12ml pro dia em 5 dias ele ganhou so 60 ml agua destilada....
is that water can drink ? I will use it for my Project. ohh you save my Future 😂

BLACKDOG
yes. correct! the transparent temp is lower then the black one.
Can this method work: For alcohol distillation, please answer and thank you
why does there have to be 2 cross pipes?
speed x2
哇哇 。 水很好 ，谢谢
Awesome! :D
does this remove bacteria from the water?
+FilmFactry if you distill it for 6 hours yes,naah if you have boiler just boil it,or just go yolo!
FilmFactry
bacteria and viruses aprox 98%. Boiling it after would mean sterilization.
AB J u do know that they are too heavy to be carried up during the evaporation process right?????? lol it's safe without a boil hahahaha
I actually would do the process twice to be sure it is, unless boiling, which actually pertains to killing off the contaminated as well.

dark spray helps heating water most quickly
thank You!
Why did you paint it black? Is it for the Algae growth?
absorbs heat better
cool, thanks.
PawZilla Smash the color black absorbs all light rays so it heats up very easily and makes the water into vapor faster
L0N3R Can We Paint It black?? Please reply fast.I have to submit it tomorrow.Please
Right
it nice project
Cool project! How long did it take to distill that much water? Thanks!
200 years
How do u condense the small bottle
that's good for emergencies situation
Eme And
its funny how you call "emergency situations". Like in all emergency situations you will always have on hand plastic bottles, silicone sealant and black paint. when you have all these at hand I wouldnt call it an emergency situation anymore.
How many ml per hour?
Awesome. I would spray paint your bottle first.
what is the dark liquid?
Every one should drink city-water, it makes you resistant against a wide palette of chemicals :D
imu70
your own "piss" comes from your dirty city water...
It's Sea Salt
Sea Salt And Water
Not a Liquid XDDDD

How long did it take to purify that amount of water ? Please answer ASAP
in the description 👆 just read
wow.but how is it distilled water?
+winvsdroid water evaporated by sun heat, leaving the dirt behhind
i think i was thinking of something else when i read distilled water.damm.he is right so r u
Genial
can we drink it
Theory of black body
how much time does it takes to filter whole bottle
harshil kakkad
you can not fill the whole bottle as this setup reduces the bottles usable volume.
sir water Kon sa ths
good
Cool
please give me the file of this how to show working
why you don't drink it on live for a more better example
Can you distill alcohol with this?
EJ Lance yea you can😄
Why did you sprayed the other bottle ?
+anvesh ilyas so it gets hotter (faster)
+Gabe Nutella ooh yeh right !!! Thank you ;)
+anvesh ilyas because black colour absorb heat :D
Can we use this water for Batteries??
I don't think anybody is going to sue you for doing that.
nyze
Gut
I'll make sure I carry my hot glue pistol and the black paint next time a run aground and become a castaway in some deserted island.
증류기 인건가요?
+김승환 네
what's that in English
Why the need to spay the bottle?
+Jessica Lin The black paint absorbs heat from the solar rays of the sun. You have to have heat to produce water vapor from the dirty water in the black bottle. That water vapor IS the distilled water.
+Howabouthetruth I see. Thanks for the explanation
Only 250ish of these and u will have enough water per day!
even a sip of water can save your life
Thomas I am doing this project to science exibition
좋네요
Bro you help me in my project thx
Water absorbs the plastic. USE GLASS BOTTLES INSTEAD. THANKS
