Wow, most effective and simplest solar disteller. I think, if the bottom of the lower bottle should be balck in colour and the upper bottle must be wrapped with alumium foil to get the sunlight reflected out, the output can be increased.
Would the foil not reflect the heat away and make it less effective?
@@japreet_kah the foil blocks the suns radiation coming in but then blocks the convection loss from leaving. it would prb be best just to put half of it with foil, facing the sun, then on the bottom put foil on the oppisite side to let in sun and keep heat loss minimun, while on the top you shade the sun side but let heat loss out through the other side. best of both worlds.
@@japreet_kah In the upper bottle where the distilled water collects you want it to be cooler so the steam turns into water faster. You could also put a wet towel over it. For the bottom bottle (dirty water) you do want it to be hotter for the water to turn into steam to make it more effective.
But that's desireable on the top part.
The best way is to increase temperature on bottom to increase evaporation
And to decrease temperature on the top part to increase condensation.
How you accomplish this is up to you...
Living in Texas, the inside of a car can get to 130 degrees even in the winter. It seems logical to me that the process would work really well in the front seat. Especially with direct sunlight.
Now that's what im looking for! Simple, make it bigger, put in a drain at the bottom of the upper reservoir, into a suitable clean container. Cant depend on bottled water forever. Need to learn to make it yourself.
SALUDOS DE MAZATLAN SINALOA MEXICO, MUY INTELIGENTE Y FACIL DE HACER TU INVENTO. VERY INTELLIGENT AND EASY TO MADE, YOUR INVENTION, CONGRATULATIONS, THANK YOU.
ideias muito legais
Genius. Just what I was looking for. Low tech and it works. Wonder how long it took to get That much water?
This is my idea! Thank you for crediting me in the description! I subbed to your channel! If your subscribers have any questions about this, I can answer.
MAD Science Hacks Thanks :)
you should get this more coverage, there are a lot of people out there without clean water and this is probably the perfect solution, (assuming it also filters out bacteria and viruses... maybe have a lab analyse the distilled water first)
+Omar adbul hadi It absolutely does not filter out bacteria and viruses. This is only first stage filtration, you must boil it afterwards.
+Elise Delfin YES you absolutely need to boil it for safe drinking! Don't let anyone else here tell you otherwise. You can get extremely ill or even die as a result of drinking contaminated water. Water from the tap is chemically treated to be safe to drink. Your distilled water should taste very neutral. The rate of condensation depends on the temperature difference between source water and where it's condensing as well as a few other factors like the angle of the condensation surface. Goodluck with your science project. Research evaporation and condensation online for more information.
+Elise Delfin If it's for a science experiment, take tap or drinking water, add food coloring to dye it, and show how the dye can be separated from the water. The only water that is safe to drink without first boiling is tap water and bottled water. All other sources of water are too dangerous because there can be virus or bacteria in the water that are small enough to be carried with the water vapor. If you wanted to use lake, stream, or rain water, you would need to boil it after distillation before drinking it. For your science experiment, you could use muddy water, and just not let anyone drink the result. Show them that it's clear, but don't drink it. Solar distillation cleans water but does not sterilize it.
Very easy, Thanks
Super idea
This was super idea I liked it
Thanks...
Nice very good 🙂🙂🙂
Glassbottle may better but very nice idea thanks for share !!!!
Excellent idea,thank you.
So clever
Amazing!!!!👍👍👍God bless you!!
if there is alcohol or similar substances they would evaporate first, and before water. So, a certain part, at the very beginning should be thrown away. and after that you can hope to have potable H2O
Very good
If one were to simply boil the dirty water in the begining (assuming that plastic bottles are not being used but something like a metal bottle with and enclosed top and say a copper tubing, would be resulting steam, then condensed back into "clear: water be safe to drink then? Or si this still considered 1st stage filtration?
Yes, what you have described is distilled water and it's the safest water to drink. Here is one simple DIY water distiller similar to what you describe. ruclips.net/video/DURI1i6fsh4/видео.html
I've been wanting to do some water distillation for some time now. I do like this method. Something I could make. Looks simple enough. I'm trying this tomorrow. Thanks.
Did you ever try it? Did it work? Haha 5 years later I know, but just saw this video today.
update?
رائع
cara tu e muito ninja
This ONE video is good enough to convince me to sub to the channel!!!!
Awesome
Shock and awe. :) simple, efficient, wow
Thanks..
More shock and awe, he lied and added water to the collection bottle since he could not admit failure. The only problem with his scheme is others have tried it and it failed.
buena idea
Nice
Its great Idea!! the problem is when the plastic bottle warm. I think better idea to use glasse made bottle and tube.
Yes, a glass bottle works best and also make sure that the bottle is air tight, otherwise it won't work.
liked the idea. thank you
This is best project. I half this project
Great idea!!!
Genius
Asad zia thank you. My idea
Superb
Thanks..
It would have been if it was real.
@@genem2849 is it cap ma boi
nice
Thanks..:)
SIMPLE, EASY, I LIKE IT
Where did you get the blue pipe that you put inside? Is it from something or you just bought it separately? Thanks! Would love to make that with my kids.
I think it's just a small electrical conduit pvc pipe, buy it wherever they sell plugs and wires for houses.
No way a solar still (not a filter) would work that fast, and if it did you'd surely see some condensation on the inside of the bottle. If you have access to clear PET bottles, just disinfect water with the SODIS method. You'll only have to distill or filter water when it's chemically contaminated.
Brilliant :)
I just love his videos
it is work in school
👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏👏
I'm going to try this with some gallon water jugs. Great for Bug out conditions.
yep thatz purfekt i dreaming it siymular buht that werkz verree well,i everee glass and ceramic crafter i want them tu mayk them n iym werking tuwardz mayking it ceramik , buht i waz typing this konsept with fosit and intayk and u hav mayd purfekt handee exampl thank u
this is great idea ,but can I use more bigger bottles ?
Yes, surely. But if the quantity of water is increased then the time for it to get evaporated and condensed will also increase.
wow super bro but I had one doubt can we put that filtered distilled water in ups batteries.. please replay soon
Yes, absolutely.
I'M SURE YOUR DAD WILL BE PROUD OF YOU,
MY KID SCAMMED LOTS OF PEOPLE ON RUclips WITH HIS VIDEO CAPTION
SOLAR WATER FILTER THIS IS REALLY FAKE HE PAUSE THE VIDEO AND FILL THE OTHER BOTTLE A CLEAN WATER
Is that a plastic tube that is used?
Is it okay if I use glass bottles instead of plastic bottles? and also I want to ask if it is okay if I don't use solar, instead I will boil it for be able to make a clear water (not a purify one, i think its complicated)?
Hi Angela, Yes glass bottle will work great but only for solar. It is not recommended to boil water in glass bottle.
If you want to boil water, it is recommended to use metal utensils.
how long we can use it
I will try it and report. It should work. This solar still would be ideal for disasters.
Boe Dayious did it work?
@@angelanambiro4788 he never tried..
Very creative. You just need a way to extract water from clean reservoir without flipping the device because that would cause contamination
he said at home
When made and completed.....get some decent weather. We’d all die of thirst in UK. (You didn’t drink it!!)
How did you cut the whole in the cap??
How do you make the hole in the lid?
Please tell me the process of this project Please 🙏
your the best so pat in the back
If u have vinegar in wild can u use it somehow to filter the water???
How to clean iron water from water tank top
great idea
please show processor of solar water filter
What kind of pipe did you use??plss reply!!!!
I just used a PVC pipe that can fit inside the bottle mouth.
Where did you source the pipe and what is it called please?
Light fitting pipe piece
what is that tube-like that you put between the 2 bottles?
pvc pipe
was that a small tube? if not, what it is?
It is a small PVC pipe.
GREAT VIDEO bro :)
You made some respectable factors there. I regarded on thevideo for the issue and located most individuals will associate with together with your video.
can you paint the bottom bottle black to make it work faster.
I can speak from having a greenhouse; covering your greenhouse with netting reduces heat. I think the clear bottle, letting in heat-producing light while trapping in heat at the same time is more efficient. I bet your could increase efficiency by having the top chamber a reflective bottle though,.
Perhaps wrap the top bottle in Aluminum foil. It would keep the bottle cooler and perhaps increase condensation of the steam. I'm going to play with this within the week. I think it is a great idea and so simple to do.
+liam firlej
Don't use piss. Piss is a good medium for bacteria once it is out of the body. Piss is only safe for a minute or two. Use piss only in extreme situation.
How did you cut the caps
I used a stationary knife. However, be extremely cautious while using sharp and harmful tools.
I used a paddle drill. But save your time as this does not work, not even a little bit.
How do I cut a hole into a bottle cap?
With a hot knife
Talk about flea power!!!
Bro what type of tube did you used?
It is a normal PVC pipe.
I tried this and it didn't work for me. Even after making the bottom bottle darker, which made the water warmer, and the top bottle shaded from the sun, there was no condensed clean water. Will have to experiment some more.
Make sure that the bottle is air tight and also, it should be placed in bright sunlight
Well damn
that sucks
You can experiment all you like, it will not work, as this video is a total scam. You cannot distil so much water in one day.
The RUclipsr filled the bottle off camera. Clickbait.
what is that blue tube? what does it contain?
it is a pvc pipe😊
Would this give you unsalted water from sea water?
I havn't actually tried it with sea water but i think if it can separate the soil and dirt, it should also make water unsalted as the salty ingredients in water will not evaporate and condense.
That said, this project is however, just a simple survival hack to get clean water in case of emergency. Using plastic bottles to purify water makes the water harmful. Glass bottles will be much effective and safe to use.
Yes
I would use plastic due to BPA. Glass containers should be used! Not plastic.
how that happened ??
if u see the bottom of your glass u will find the Concave in the center, so all distilling water will fall again in the down glass by the pipe.
No, while evaporation, the water vapours just does not get concentrated at the center. They also get spread to the edges as well.
Just place a half filled water bottle inside a car during sunlight, you will find water vapours all around the bottle not just at a single concentrated point.
Song info pls? thx
Would this filter parasites too? Or is that a boiling matter?
Unless the parasites climb up the tube then yes because it should be 100% pure water because it evaporates and condensates on the top
I love carina truly
1:06 if u want to fake it, at least wait till there was some condensation in the upper container.
This must be heating,.. may get few drops
would this water be safe to drink? regardless of source also.
This is a kind of survival hack. The water will not be healthy to drink as plastic bottles release chemicals. However, if glass bottles are used, the water will be much pure.
so there's no such thing as both airborne and waterborne contaminants?
wording this question is difficult but I think you'd know what I mean.
will it be safe if you use glass though? like do you still need to boil it and stuff?
Ian Kennedy the water is distilled and safe to drink. I recommend using glass bottles but the thing about plastic bottles giving cancer has not been proven
Kangaroo Shorts there are no contaminants. There are certain variables that are required to propagate bacterial contaminants. ...and Airborne? If it is airborne, you'd be exposed to it without drinking the water. It's the process of distilling. Only water evaporates. Everything else stays at the bottom
Do distillers waste alot of electricity? Anyone know of a good one, relatively cheap?
Amazing! What is that metal tube you used in this video called an where can I buy it?
It is not metal but a PVC tube available on local hardware shops.
I would recommend using glas bottels, plastic is not so good für health and not maid for such use. Sure you wan't fall down when you drink it but long term... would not risc it if you don't have to.
You should use some kind of metal bottle like stainless steel and put it over a fire for best results
Nice video. Great job
The title is a bit off since it is not a filter. More like a simple distiller.
Victor Gaíva It's not their fault for saying it's a filter. It's just what I named the design
What if we used different size bottles? Will it still work?
Yes, it will. However, it is important to keep the bottles air tight.
This method does not work at all.
is that a pipe?
Yes, a PVC pipe.
It is fake, I tried with 4 different bottles even painted some black on the bottom. Not a drop in 3 days.
Yes indeed, it doesn't works that way
There's some working solutions but definitly not this one. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_still
Well damn
I'm trying it now and I can see some condensation happening at the top bottle, so if I make it drip, I assume I can gather some filtered water
Maybe you didn't tighten caps up properly or maybe you didn't use the right tube. Or it could be that the tube has a leak or a hole somewhere. I'm just giving you possible reasons why it may not work.
without water pipe can we use pipes which are used in hospitals????
plz reply
আমার রান্নাঘর yes you can. I designed this to be used with any pipe as long as it is hard pipe. If it bends the water will drain back down.
Try it yourself, test it, and then believe it or not so much. (You can get really thirsty in two days alreay…)
is that pvc pipe
yes
While the Plastic Bottle is heated under the heat of the Sun, There's a Big chances of Possibility that the Plastic Bottle will Melt, Is it true Or False?? Please reply!!!!
Mr. Chuyyaa yes plastic is harmful. but glass bottle is the best one to use...this idea is great.
Yes and no. PETG (what most water botles are made of) has a really high melting temperate (Nearly 200 degrees F) It will degrade however PETG is considered food safe by the FDA. Most plastic bottles (aside those marked as BPA FREE) will leach chemicals into whatever the bottle contains.
nice
negative. almost all plastic drinking bottles are PETE with only a few exceptions. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Polyethylene_terephthalate
glass is better for health reasons
It work if using glass bottle.
Using plastic bottle even it work, the water must be not good to use.
On more CAN THE PLASTIC BOTTLE REALLY CANT MELT?? Other commenters dont judge already if u havent tried it
And make sure you bottle of water is safe
Hmm... I'd rather suffocate than drink chemically combined with plastic chemicals water.
Why no drink Water?
Have you tried it on salt water?
Will try with sea water. This in an emergency in LB CA is what I got. Or ugly ditch water.
So, by the same idea you can transform also the salty sea water into a drinkable water!!! Great!!!
