There is no denying that life is impossible without water. Since it makes up more than 70% of our body, and the surface of the earth, water is an undeniable necessity of life. Even with advancements in technology, there are still many regions of the world, facing horrible devastation from not having clean, drinkable water.
Many who are aware of the water crisis, have wished on more than one occasion, for someone to create water out of thin air. It would save so many precious lives.
What if we could find some way to generate water from the air, to put an end to the drought in areas with water shortages, or contaminated water? Well, it’s already been done!
An Atmospheric Water Generator might seem like something out of a movie, but it’s very much a reality. This machine makes drinkable water out of the air and it’s the world’s only nature-based way of generating clean water. With the latest technology and state of the art machinery, they can generate anywhere between 100 to 10,000 liters of drinkable water per unit, on a daily basis.
No more water shortage
These units contain a stainless steel tank, plastics that are biodegradable, and a filtration system that produces water as pure as the bottles you buy in the store. It works by extracting moisture from humid air around the unit.
The process is very similar to a dehumidifier. For example, when air goes over a cool coil, it triggers the condensation of water. How much water is generated, depends on a variety of factors. Most importantly, the humidity level. The Atmospheric Water Generator features five filters, which include carbon, reverse osmosis, and UV light. These ensure that the extracted water is free from all contaminants.
Most plastic bottles can be a nuisance to the environment, but with these units, you don’t have to worry about that. With an integrated 3-gallon stainless steel storage tank, your water will be safe and available on demand.
It doesn’t take a lot of electricity to run and it’s suitable for both commercial and residential use.
Cold or Hot? This gives you both
Some people like it warm, while others like it cold. These can give you both. It’s capable of cooling water to 40.0F and heating it to 199.0F. Tech products aren’t usually very versatile, but this one is different since it can be used anywhere and everywhere. Powered by electricity, this machine’s versatility allows it to be used in a wide range of areas.
The machine works best in areas with at least 50% humidity. This machine does double-duty on hot summer nights. It gets the sticky moisture out of the air and it gives you clean, refreshing water at the same time. The negative is that it isn’t that effective during dry winter days since there isn’t much moisture in the air. It will still produce water though, as long as the humidity is at least 30%. If the air is drier than that, you can still use the system to filter tap water.
Refreshing progress in the right direction
This is the first machine of its kind and surely a step towards a better future. If the machine is successful in achieving more global attention, it can prove to be a fundamental step towards solving a major world issue. It already provides drinking water that meets the strict WHO standards. The best feature of the machine is that it requires minimal maintenance and thus provides a cost-effective solution to water shortage.
Companies and manufacturers need to invest in this machine because making it accessible in impoverished countries will help solve the water crisis all over the world.
