Abstract:
1. A water purification apparatus, comprising: a first end and a second end in opposition to one another, a line between the first end and the second end forming an axis; at least one first port formed in the first end for receiving airflow therethrough and at a pressure higher than an ambient atmospheric pressure to form a vortex flow; at least one second port formed in the first end for receiving salt water therethrough and at a pressure higher than the ambient atmospheric pressure, the salt water being directed into the vortex flow; at least one first output formed in the second end for providing outflow of purified water vapor; at least one second output formed in the second end for providing outflow of a mixture of water, salt and air; a plurality of passageways arranged substantially parallel to the axis; a plurality of processing chambers configured to evaporate the salt water into the airflow, the processing chambers being arranged in series along the axis, at least one of the passageways being arranged surrounding each processing chamber, each processing chamber comprising: at least one tube casing extending between the first end and the second end, the at least one tube casing enclosing the plurality of processing chambers.
