Solar powered vacuum assisted desalination system

A water sanitizing system configured to produce water vapor, the system comprising:

• an inner chamber including a water inlet, a gas outlet and a discharge;
• an outer chamber disposed at least partially around the inner chamber;
• a concentrator for concentrating solar energy on contents within the inner chamber;
• a manifold that is separately in fluid communication with both the inner chamber and the outer chamber;
• and
• a vacuum source in fluid communication separately with the inner chamber and the outer chamber, the vacuum source controlling pressure within the inner chamber separately from the outer chamber for controlling conversion of liquid within the inner chamber to a gas and for generating an insulating vacuum within the outer chamber, wherein the vacuum source includes a vacuum pump in fluid communication with the manifold, wherein the manifold is configured to separately place the vacuum pump in fluid communication with the inner chamber and the outer chamber so as to provide for the vacuum pump to independently control a pressure within the inner chamber separate of a pressure in the outer chamber, wherein water within the inner chamber is transformed into water vapor by solar energy directed into the inner chamber by the concentrator and subsequently removed from the inner chamber.
