Arizona Company Using Solar Tech to Create Drinking Water

A UA researcher also describes other ways potable water is being generated.

Vanessa Barchfield shows us how the Phoenix-based Zero Mass Water is exploring ways to create drinking water by using solar technology. She also spoke to water researcher and University of Arizona assistant professor Andrea Achilli about how other organizations are pursuing similar initiatives.
