Current Projects
We are working on many projects. Here we have described three that relate directly to improved water quality. The Better Water Maker, Human Generated Power Cart and Ecostones. Please contact us if you are interested in further information.
Human Generated Power
We have developed a partner for our Better Water Maker. This is a cart that when pulled generates power, stored in a battery for later use in powering the Better Water Maker. This cart will also alleviate the enormous physical strain that is typically endured in carrying water from it's source, back to the home.
This was successfully tested in Ghana with our Better Water Maker. Click here to learn more about this experience.
Ecostones: A Beneficial Use of commingled Plastics
We have developed a unique jack-shaped product made of scrap plastic materials that has twice the surface area and twice the voids of dolomite. While a typical cattail filtration system to remediate parking lot runoff (i.e., pollutants such as salt and oil), the cattail roots, and associated, microorganisms live in the vast surface areas and voids of the Ecostones, instead of soil.
The efficiency of these Ecostones has been proven by A/B tests of side-by-side dolomite vs. Ecostone for water treatment in ponds.
