According to the developers, their device produces about a liter drinking water per day, but they are not going to stop. A larger unit is approaching, which will provide water to the whole village.
California inventors reported that from their device about one liter of water per day comes out, and you can immediately drink it without any filtering.
The main component of this unit is made from a hybrid material based on aluminum. This component is wonderful. absorbs moisture, and when heated, gives.
The whole structure is placed in a plastic box in which air is pumped. The heating element contributes to the release accumulated water, which then flows into a container. Whole construction receives energy from the solar battery.

In 2014, the inventors demonstrated a prototype of this devices, but he did not use a fan and heating element. At night, the device absorbed moisture, and during the day, heating up under the sun, it gave. On less dry days, the device gave out about 400 milliliters of drinking water.
The latest novelty passed the test in the Mojave Desert, where the device dispensed about 700 milliliters of water per day.
Inventors claimed that using the most compact version a temperate catchment can be mined about 10 liters per day. What should be enough for a family of three.
However, the developers decided not to stop there. the result, so next year they are getting ready to present a new version of the device that can give 22500 liters per day, which may well satisfy the needs of the whole the village.
ESOREITER previously talked about California engineers, created an installation for extracting water from the air. Their installation capable of generating about 2000 liters of drinking water per day.
