March 11th, 2008 | Category: Tech Talk

Designed for society living in third world countries, the Aquaduct hopes to offer an affordable solution for clean water. Video after the break. Here’s how it works:

It’s got a tank on the back that can be used to store and transport water, and while the user is pedaling, water is pumped through a

filter into a ‘clean’ tank on the front of the bike. whether you get to your destination before all of your water is purified, flip a clutch on the side of the bike, and you can pedal in place to purify the rest
