Bamboo had a unique theory to desalination to filter the salt from water. The reason this is interesting as its said this is the idea behind the hull design of the Junks. This was great because each compartment could be sealed separately from the others so if that section was damaged and leaking water it wouldn't put the ship in danger! (much like the titanic but better). Also they used it for a number of things. They would store water in some where they could have live fish ready for eating. Also in dangerous storms and heavy waves they could open the back to let water in so the back would become heavy and lift the front making it easily for them to sail over the waves.
