Products extract water from the air and are designed for industrial and office applications. Key factors are dewpoint and relative humidity.
About
Sewage spills, deliberate and accidental, into fresh and oceanic water resources by developed countries, including Europe, UK, USA and Canada, occur multiple times daily.This has resulted in their water resources being unsuitable in many locations for industry and human consumption and are a concerning environmental issue. Developing countries lack the capital to install proper infrastructure to remove sewage and deliver water. This leads to open defecation which further destroys the suitability of natural resources for manufacturing and human consumption. This simultaneously impacts on businesses with distributed/decentralised production and sales models. This results in pollution of undergound and above ground water resources and significantly increased production costs for manufacturers, particularly those in the food and beverage industries.Our brand name explains exactly what our technology does. We extract water from air. Issues surrounding water, including global warming have impacted water availability, and population growth creates the need to produce more and more food and beverages. Global markets consequently create ever-increasing demand for these products leading to production demand increasing. Increasing personal wealth has stimulated demand even further, all of which have lead to water availability crises developing as has been the case in southern Spain and Portugal for example. Water is not always available in every location for a variety of reasons. Our technology can produce water in any location, despite the environmental constraints of the location. Our superior technology produces higher volumes, and we have created supporting technologies to reduce the impact of variable relative humidity and temperature environments on water production.
Key Benefits
There are many reasons why local potable water may not be available in any given location. Water tables that have been depleted due to over-utilisation (eg. Spain and Portugal), polluted by industry or agriculture, aquifer damage due to over-utilisation leading to sea water infiltration, or natural pollution due to seismic activity or natural phenomena.Our product is ideally suited to any location irrespective of the reason for a local lack of water. It does not impact on the environment in any way, nor is it impacted by the environment. Our technology avoids these issues and reduces the impact of human activity on the water quality and availability, simply due to the fact that we extract the water from the air and not land based resources, making pure high quality water available 24/7/365.This also means no transport costs, no water purchase costs, no taxes and no compliance issues and costs. We have designed other technology to work in conjunction with our standard technology which can increase yields. This is proprietary information.
Applications
Our machines are designed to produce water in locations that are arid, do not have access to reliable and/or potable water sources, water resources damaged by agricultural and/or industry related pollution or any other reason. They are ideally suited to remote locations. The machines are designed to suit a variety of markets and for large industrial or commercial requirements are able to be used in parellel to increase production to meet demand. As the systems are modular it also allows for large sites to be avoided and a decentralised approach to be utilised if appropriate.The underlying technology is similar in all models and the main variance is the output production volume. This technlogy has no application limitations. Production units can be aggregated on a site to increase production volumes.
