Innovative Shower Reduces Water Usage by 90%, Electricity by 80% | I Fucking Love Science

Innovative Shower Reduces Water Usage by 90%, Electricity by 80% | I Fucking Love Science: "A typical 10-minute shower can use 150 liters of water and requires energy to keep all of that incoming water hot. An innovative new design recycles shower water so only around five liters of water is needed and can be used and reused for weeks.

The OrbSys shower system is the brainchild of Mehrdad Mahdjoubi, an industrial designer. The idea was first conceived when he was studying at the University of Lund in Sweden when he wanted to combat the large amounts of water waste associated with bathing. After graduation, he began to collaborate with NASA to bring life to the idea."
