Uses concentrated sun light to power water distillation. Uses a dish with a coating created by Bayer here in pgh. A 3 dish system can distill 500 gallons of H20 per day. Advantage that this process can be used in areas that don’t have power. Also can be beneficial bc these systems can be installed in locations and thus you don’t need pipelines to/from water treatment plant.
