VIDEO: Aquaduct - The Pedal Powered Water Purifier
Designed for people living in third world countries, the Aquaduct hopes to offer an affordable solution for clean water. Video after the break. Here’s how it works:
It’s got a tank on the back that can be used to store and transport water, and while the user is pedaling, water is pumped through a filter into a clean tank on the front of the bike. If you get to your destination before all of your water is purified, flip a clutch on the side of the bike, and you can pedal in place to purify the rest
