A potable water making apparatus includes a thermoelectrical cooling plate, air intake, and a separator. The thermoelectrical cooling plate is operable with electrical power to form a cool surface. The air intake guides the air from a surrounding across an area of the cooling plate, and the separator drives condensation from the cool surface to a reservoir.

A water purification device comprising a pre-purified water reservoir for storing pre-purified water, a water vapor chamber for receiving water vapor generated from heating the pre-purified water in the pre-purified water reservoir, a condensation chamber for receiving the water vapor and condensing the water vapor into purified water, and a Peltier device comprising a hot side and a cold side. The hot side of the Peltier device heats the pre-purified water into water vapor and the cold side of the Peltier device condenses the water vapor into purified water.

A wastewater concentrator a liquid evaporator assembly, a gas-liquid separator, an exhaust assembly, and a slurry thickening and storage system. The slurry thickening and storage system includes a slurry thickening tank fluidly connected to the gas-liquid separator and a thickened slurry storage tank fluidly connected to the slurry thickening tank.

A portable, collapsible still includes an upper reservoir for coolant water, an intermediate condensing chamber, and a lower reservoir of an aqueous solution, for example, seawater. A condenser coil is in fluid communication with the headspace in the lower reservoir above its fluid level, with the coil extending into the condenser chamber and to an external fluid port. A reflector is positioned below the lower reservoir, to reflect sunlight onto the lower reservoir to heat it. As the water vapor pressure in the lower reservoir increases as a result of the solar heating, the water vapor enters the coil, which is bathed in the lower temperature coolant water from the upper reservoir, causing the water vapor to condense inside the coil and thus be available for drinking.

A heatable canteen includes a hand held vessel having a bottom and upward extending wall which terminates into a top having an open top receiving surface, a removable cap connected to said top receiving surface, the removable cap having an outer portion which removably sealably connects to the top receiving surface and has an interior channel extending therethrough and has a valve seat in a lower end thereof and a valve ball installed in a manner to bias the valve ball against the valve seat to a normally closed position. A secondary vessel is provided about the hand held vessel. A lid is connected to the vessel or cap by way go a heatable line. A distillation tube removably connects to the vessel.

A system and method for decontaminating a fluid and recovered vapor, particularly processing and recycling water used in an oil zone steam process, utilizing a vaporizer-desalination unit to separate a contaminated water flow into a contaminated disposal flow and a clean water vapor flow. The contaminated water flow is recovered after separation from a combined oil and water flow from an oil well. The clean water vapor flow is preferably passed through a steam generator to produce the steam used in the oil zone steam process. The steam is injected into the oil zone of a designated well and then extracted as the combined oil and water flow. Once primed with sufficient external water, the system and method is designed to operate continuously with minimal replenishment because of the water/vapor/steam cycle.
