Abstract Due to rapid environmental degradation, water scarcity is becoming an increasing issue in lower-income countries. This project aims to make drinking water more accessible to people in water-scarce regions by conceptualizing a portable device to desalinate and purify local seawater. Ultimately, this device will reduce the health impacts associated with water-borne illnesses from consuming contaminated water and improve the quality of life for millions worldwide.
