SeaKettle: a life raft with an incorporated desalination process

Function

The SeaKettle is a life raft that combines safety, accessibility, and a desalination process. In an emergency at sea, you may not be able to obtain fresh drinking water before being forced to abandon ship. Passengers could easily die of thirst or from extreme temperatures before they are rescued or reach land. The SeaKettle solves these potential life threatening problems by providing both insulated, reliable shelter as well as fresh drinking water. The process, (see image 5), involves pumping sea water up to a Gortex covered reservoir, where the water is subject to evaporation. The evaporated water then hits the top canopy and condenses, filling the four pockets around the raft with fresh drinking water. The Gortex cover over the reservoir allows the vapor molecules to escape, but holds in the larger liquid molecules, preventing the pockets of fresh water from becoming contaminated by the sea water. This produces enough water for up to five passengers to stay sufficiently hydrated.

T-Fal ActiFry

ACTIFRY: a revolutionary cooking appliance that crisps and provides the same meal satisfaction as ‘deep-frying’ using a spoonful of oil. Traditional, home-style favorites - such as crispy and golden French fries - are easily prepared, reducing drastically the fat content vs. that of oven-made or fast food restaurant fries. Essential good oils can be used, such as olive oil, sun-flower, rapeseed, canola. In addition, the nutritional properties of both the potato and, more importantly, the “good” oil used are less degraded to promote better health.


ACTIFRY’s unique process – using a spoonful of oil - can also be used to cook a large number of healthy, tasty recipes: including seafood, meat, crunchy stir-fried or home-style vegetables, and fruits.

SIT - Self Inflating Tire

What is SIT?
SIT is an integral tire component that uses atmospheric air to automatically inflate the tire while it is used. This ensures maintenance-free, constant tire pressure over the lifetime of the tire.
When a vehicle equipped with SIT tires is put in motion, under-inflated tires will gradually re-inflate, reducing risks derived from natural loss of pressure or small tire punctures.
The inflation stops automatically once the desired tire pressure is reached.
Driving for less than 1 mile would compensate for typical leakage of 1 to 3% per month.

How important is tire pressure?
Tires commonly leak slowly and unnoticeably. In the USA, 27% of passenger cars and 32% of light trucks and SUVs have at least one tire under-pressured by more than 25%. Under-inflated tires negatively impact:

• SAFETY In the United States, 660 lives are lost and 33,000 are injured every year.87% of all flat tires have a history of under inflation.
• FUEL ECONOMY Poor tire pressure costs the US an extra $3.7 billion in fuel annually.
• TIRE LONGEVITY Every year in the US, 4.5 million tires need to be replaced before their designed lifespan.
