drinking water technology from the air

lpg wrote:Good morning everyboy!

I am back to the group to remind and let everybody know about the new Skywater systems we jaust introduced in BCS.

They are based on the very simple concept of condensating the air humidity via a temperature shock (like an air conditioner), and purify the condensated water via a 10 steps filtration process including 3 UV lights and an osmotic membrane.

The resulting water has superior quality and will set you free from carrying jugs, depending on deliveries, or the hassle of the maintenance of the traditional water filtration systems.

There are several size of machines availables, from 7.5 gallons/day up to more than 1,300 gallons/day, for communities or hotels.

The home machine is called Ejecutivo and will provide you with 7.5 gals/day of excellent purified water straight from the air of your house or office, as cold as fridge water and as hot as boiling water for your coffee or tea. It has a touch screen to control all functions and it is basically maintenance free. It just requires changing the filters cartridge set every 3 to 5 years.

The electricity cost is as low as 6 pesos/5 gallons of water, which allows te recovery of the inversion over time.

For more informtion or a free trial, or to see the unit, please contact me at: (you know our area code) 1198643

Two years ago, XPrize extended its list of pioneering technology competitions with a new contest aimed at the problem of global water security. After revealing the five finalists earlier in the year, the foundation has today announced the grand prize winner, which outshone almost 100 competitors with its superior ability to harvest fresh water from thin air.

The Water Abundance XPrize drew 98 competing teams from 25 countries, who were asked to develop and demonstrate technologies capable of harvesting 2,000 L (528 gal) of water from the atmosphere each day. They needed to be powered entirely by renewable energy, and produce water at a cost of no more than two cents per liter (0.26 gal).

Over the month of September, two finalists were made to fully demonstrate their devices satisfying these requirements, with LA-based Skysource/Skywater Alliance coming up trumps. Its range of deployable machines pull moisture from the air, condense it and then filter it into fresh water, with outputs ranging from 30 gal (113 L) to 300 gal (1,135 L) per day.

Skysource/Skywater Alliance claims its device harvests atmospheric water more efficiently than any other method

The company's website states that it harvests atmospheric water more efficiently than any other method, and we guess it now has the accolades to back up its claims, along with US$1.5 million in prize money.

Coming in second place was Hawaii's JMCC WING, whose solution combines a high torque wind energy system with an atmospheric water harvester as a way of keeping energy requirements, and thereby costs per liter, to a minimum. JMCC WING has received $150,000 for its efforts.
