You are marooned on a sandy island surrounded by
ocean water. A stagnant, murky, looking pond
contains the only available water on the island. In
your survival kit, you have the following items:
-One nylon jacket
-One plastic cup
-Two plastic bags
-One length of rubber tubing
-One knife
-One 1-L bottle of liquid bleach
-One 5-L glass bottle
-One bag of salted peanuts
Describe a plan to produce drinkable water using
only the items available and the sun. Use pictures
as necessary.
For full credit you must
-write a step by step procedure of your purification plan
-include materials used, the purpose of them, and what you expect the outcome for each step.
-relate the methods to techniques (filtration, decantation, distillation, etc)
