The innovative device is a new kind of floating island that is used to purify the water. Powered by exercise machines, it will begin to work as soon as several exercise machines are operated together. When the so-called “Synchronicity Island” works, it will firstly pump the water into the four tanks, and then start the whole purifying process. What a nice green machine!

Gravitation Vortex Power

Franz Zotlöterer, an Austrian engineer, developed this mini-power plant which is simple to construct and has a turbine efficiency of 80%. But, this plant have a extra function, which is improving water quality by oxygenation. His vision is to restore the health of the funning water to where it was before human intervention led to reduced oxygenation due to laminar flows—while winning power at the same time.
