Beware using potentially poisonous materials in your solar still--even 100% silicone is toxic unless it is food-grade. This book covers how stills work, the easy, better, and best solar stills, commercial stills, kits and plans that are available, and how to build your own cheap and easy for simple water purification using just the sun's energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTABLE OF CONTENTS\u003c\/strong\u003e (chapters, page numbers): \u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eINTRODUCTION\u003c\/strong\u003e 2\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSOLAR DISTILLER BASICS\u003c\/strong\u003e 5\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e What is a Solar Distiller\/Still?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e How Does it Work?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Solar Distiller Plans\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Where do I Place it?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Finding Solar South\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eHOW SOLAR STILLS WORK\u003c\/strong\u003e 15\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e How Good is the Water?\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Storing Distilled Water\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Beware of Bottled Water\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The Superior Solar Still\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eWHERE STILLS ARE USED\u003c\/strong\u003e 24\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e EPSEA Solar Still Projects\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Colonias and Developing Nations\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eIS CITY WATER SAFE?\u003c\/strong\u003e 37\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eSOLAR WATER DISINFECTION\u003c\/strong\u003e 43\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Solar Ovens for Solar Water Pasteurization\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eMATERIALS \u0026amp; TIPS\u003c\/strong\u003e 51\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Materials\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Materials to Avoid\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Mistakes People Make\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTHE CHEAP SOLAR STILL\u003c\/strong\u003e 58\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Emergency Solar Still\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Condensation Trap Solar Still\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTHE BETTER SOLAR STILL\u003c\/strong\u003e 63\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The Multi-Level\/Troughed Still\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e The Wicking Still\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eTHE BEST SOLAR STILL\u003c\/strong\u003e 68\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Single Basin Still\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Important Rules for Making a Still\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eCOMMERCIAL STILLS\u003c\/strong\u003e 80\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Multi-Trough or Array Style Stills\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Single Basin Passive Solar Stills\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Hybrid Family or Industrial-Sized Solar Distillers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Hill Kemp Solar Still Interview Notes\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eBEYOND DISTILLATION\u003c\/strong\u003e 100\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Fog Collection\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Geographical Considerations for Fog Collectors\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Mimicking Nature for Fog Collectors and Distillers\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Dew Collection\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003eABOUT SOLAR WATER DISTILLER CONSTRUCTION PLANS\u003c\/strong\u003e 109\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e \u003cstrong\u003ePROBLEMS IN TEXAS COLONIAS\u003c\/strong\u003e 112\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e Sharon Buydens first served on the Board of Directors as Secretary and newsletter editor for the El Paso Solar Energy Association (www.espea.org) starting in 1989 (under her previous name). After learning about passive solar home design, and teaching workshops, attending events, promoting solar on Earth Day committees, she designed and built a passive solar straw bale house in Nebraska. Upon returning to El Paso in 1999 she became EPSEA's Project Manager for three bi-national and EPA grants to install solar water distillers in border colonias; she was first female EPSEA President in 2001. Today Sharon writes books and teaches others about the many practical aspects of solar energy.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Createspace Independent Publishing Platform","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":50556845392146,"sku":"9781517216689","price":18.99,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0831\/4771\/8930\/files\/img_e38c6d38-ec60-4487-88f7-010b07003e44.jpg?v=1744214993","url":"https:\/\/surprise-castle.myshopify.com\/products\/diy-how-to-build-a-solar-water-distiller-do-it-yourself-make-a-solar-still-to-purify-h20-without-electricity-or-water-p-9781517216689","provider":"Surprise Castle","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
