Abstract
Our focus in this project is to address water scarcity by creating a simple solar still system that will increase water productivity. The solar still uses simple design features to transform non-potable water into a secure and useful resource. It does this by employing strong materials and an effective water purification system. Optimized sunlight exposure angles, enhanced heat retention, and technology that guarantees continuous water production even in times of low sunlight are some of the key features. Thorough field testing in regions with non-potable water sources assesses the system's functionality under varying conditions. Participation from the community is essential, as input directs system optimization for cultural appropriateness and usability. The project also places a strong emphasis on building sustainably and cheaply by using local resources. A thorough documentation process records the phases of testing, construction, and design iterations, offering important information for upcoming implementations and enhancements
