Tango,

I have not looked at the idea properly to see exactly how well it would
work but on first glance it looks like it may just work well. You could
run the water through a solar furnace but why stop with water. I have
seen a proposal to take all toxic or final use material (final use is
something that has been used and recycled and reused to the point where
it is to be disposed of and has no parts that can be recycled or reused
again) and put it into a furnace (solar or in the proposal I saw it was
a hot plasma, I prefer solar, you can get better heat and no
contamination) and heat until everything is disassociated and ionised.
You then use all that free vacuum all around you and throw ( very
carefully so that it is going the right way at the right speed) the
glowing mass into a magnetic field and turn the entire thing into the
worlds largest Mass Spectrometer with big buckets in the right place and
you just collect the now very pure elements in 96 or so little piles and
then you can reuse them by mixing. You just need a good cookbook, want
salt? Take bucket #11 & #17 or need to help the gardens grow? Grab #1 &
#6 & #7 & #8. Now I know that some things just don't mix well that way,
you have to do things in the right way and at the right time but it is a
nice way to turn toxic sludge into ingredients for your super cook-all.

I would like to know what you think, could it work? Meanwhile I'll try
to find the original work, I think it is written, so I'll have search
under the house and look for it.

Prozac seeping into water supplies

Research Finds A Compound Associated With Scotchgard More Widespread
In Environment And Wildlife Than First Thought

Sure we can drink our prozac & scotchgard laced water and be happy
and stainproof for the remainder of our lives, but wouldn't it be
better to take all of our waste and run it through a nice high-
temperature solar furnace and distill the water back to purity.

All Habitat waste streams can be remediated with cheap solar energy.
