It sounds like it would be easier to distill the water with a fire. You'd need a more or less sealed pan to boil water in, some tubing that would pipe the steam into a collecting bowl, and something to cool the tubing and steam down - eg another bowl of cold water. And a fire. Not a lot of gear, most of which would have alternate uses. I am sure I've seen it done on a Ray Mears programme.
