A strange black 'bubble wrap' could help solve one of the world's most urgent problems: access to clean drinking water. As ...

Researchers at MIT have tested a new technology for turning water vapor in the atmosphere into drinkable water, even in ...

Strategies for collecting water from the atmosphere using minimal energy could fill a crucial gap in sustaining communities that have limited access to water.

Atmospheric water harvesting is a way to obtain fresh water in arid regions, as there is always some moisture in the air, especially in the form of morning fog. The trick lies in capturing this moi… ...

Still, with entire communities running out of water, interest in the machines is growing rapidly. "In the last 6 months we've done more business than we have in the 3 ½ years prior.

Aquahara, a German Solar Atmospheric Water Startup, ... (50 gallons) of water per day, using 100 square meters (around 1000 square ft) of solar collectors.

A scientist in Turkey has simulated eight PV-supported hybrid atmospheric water harvesting systems and compared their performances. They were all considered to operate with R1233zd(E), R1234yf, and ...

Atmospheric water vapour condenses from the air onto cold surfaces, ... As an update on the traditional 2D FWC system, an Innovative Fog Water Collector (i-FWC) ...

While collectors vary in size, a 40-metres-square collector in a reasonably foggy area yields around 200 litres a day, enough to supply 60 people with drinking water. Further improvements are ...
