The device, which turns sweat into drinking water





This unusual device was introduced to the general public in the Swedish city of Gothenburg during the opening of the football tournament of the World Youth Cup Gotia. Guests and participants were asked to donate their sweat-soaked clothing or risk a glass of water obtained from the purified sweat. On average, one T-shirt turned out to produce 10 ml of drinking water.

The car proved to be surprisingly popular - many famous players have not given up try to "treat". If you are disgusted with the thought of drinking water, which was then, do not forget that more than 780 million people worldwide do not provide the proper amount of drinking water, of which about 125 million - the children.

As explained by the representative of UNICEF in Sweden Per Westberg:

«We would like to raise this issue so that's unusual, funny way. Our "Potomashina" remind everyone that each person needs water. We all drink and sweat, regardless of eye shape, skin color and language spoken, so access to drinking water - it's a problem everyone ».

blockquote> «Potomashina" unlikely to go into mass production: worldwide are now used more effective methods of drinking water, such as special water purification tablets - 5 thousand of these tablets cost about $ 32.
