A Life Buoy That Can Distill Seawater.

Back Download

In the event of a shipwreck, most people would die of dehydration and sunburn because prolonged immersion in seawater accelerates the loss of water from the body. This improved buoy is a life preserver that extracts seawater and distils it into drinkable water to supplement the human body. Despite this function, it does not change the original buoyancy of the life buoy and increases the victim’s chances of being rescued. Red Dot Award: Design Concept | Concept | Protection
