Sustainable development goals:
6 - Clean Water & Sanitation

Water scarcity is already a problem today and the likelihood is high that the situation will worsen in the future. In order to provide access to drinking water for as many people as possible, the founders of DrinkSea have developed a process that enables them to obtain drinking water from salt water - without having to rely on chemical processes or elaborate filters. In this way, they want to provide people in the tropics and subtropics with clean drinking water on a sustainable basis.
