I. Watercone
1. Product DescriptionThis Invention represents a conical, self-supporting and
stackable Unit made from transparent, thermo-formable polycarbonate (same as water dispensers) outfitted with a screw cap spout at the tip and an inward circular collecting trough at the base. Technically speaking it is a solar still.

1. Pour salty / brackish Water into pan. Then float the Watercone(r) on top. The black pan absorbs the sunlight and heats up the water to support evaporation..
4
2. The evaporated Water condensates in the form of droplets on the inner wall of the cone. These droplets trickle down the inner wall into a circular trough at the inner base of the cone.

3. By unscrewing the cap at the tip of the cone and turning the cone upside down, one can empty the potable Water gathered in the trough directly into a drinking device.

3. Technical Info: Dimension, Yields• WATERCONE (r) (with a base diameter of 60-80 cm)
yields between 1.0 to 1.7 Liters of condensed water per day (24 hours).
• Even when the WATERCONE (r) becomes old and tarnished, it can still be used to collect rain water, as a rood panel or container for other goods. Another environmental impact is the fact that solar energy is used instead of gas, oil or electricity to desalinate seawater. In many countries, poor people cook the dirty water by burning the last remaining wood and therefore they promote the growth of deserts worldwide. The WATERCONE (r) could be used in these regions as well.

• The WATERCONE(r) is a long lasting UV resistant Poly Carbonate product and can be used up to 5 years daily. The material is non-toxic, non-flammable and 100% recyclable. The black pan for the saltwater is already made out of 100% recycled PC.

II. Evaporative Food Cooling Systems1. Pot on Pot
The pot-in-pot consists of two earthenware pots of different diameters, one placed inside the other. The space between the two pots is filled with wet sand that is kept constantly moist, thereby keeping both pots damp. Fruit, vegetables and other items such as soft drinks are put in the smaller inner pot, which is covered with a damp cloth. The phenomenon that occurs is based on a simple principle of physics: the water contained in the sand between the two pots evaporates towards the outer surface of thelarger pot where the drier outside air is circulating. By virtue of the laws of thermodynamics, the evaporation process automatically causes a drop in temperature of several degrees, cooling the inner container, destroying harmful micro-organisms and preserving the perishable foods inside.

• Here the temperature inside the pot is 74 degrees. It is 35 degrees cooler inside the pot than outside. I have now had these fruits and vegetables in the device for a week and they are perfectly fresh. The daytime outside temperature has varied this week from the high of 109 degrees to 90 degrees and the temperature inside the pot has varied from 75 degrees to 62 degrees.

III. Gravitational Water Vortex Power Plant

1. Principles• Water vortex power plants make use of water's natural inclination to
form vortexes if channeled through the optimal shape. The principle is simple: water accelerates down a slope, forms a vortex within a circular confinement, and exits, turning propellers embedded in the vortex to power nearby generators
• The modern hydrodynamic turbulent water circulation will be eliminated. On the other hand we developed the world wide first so called gravitation water vortex power plant which uses the rotation energy of a single gigantic water vortex. It is a milestone in the hydrodynamic development because in the past we needed energy to aerate water - now we have a water aeration process which produces electric energy. Already in the first operation year the invention of the Austrian engineer Franz Zotlöterer produced 50.000kWh - electric energy for 14 average European households. The prototype plant supply the public electricity network with current. You can find the gravitation water vortex power plant on the millstream in Obergrafendorf (10km southwest from St. Pölten in Austria in Central Europa). It is public and can be reached on the cycle track along the Pielach River:
