WaterGen is now developing and producing portable units that literally turn water vapor in the air into potable drinking water.
Watergen
has received attention from the US, French and UK militaries; which have been looking for a more economical way to provide fresh water to troops stationed in desert locations.
WaterGen can filter as much as 7 to 10 gallons (28 – 40 liters) daily; and a larger unit for field bases produces as much as 120 gallons (480 liters) a day.
WaterGen Chairman and co-CEO Arye Kohavi says that a portable water producing system helps free the military from the need to transport water supplies in tanker convoys which have often been subject to attack in locations like Afghanistan.
WaterGen units will be introduced into India this year. “We have been approached by many companies in India to partner with for launching products with WaterGen technology. We will launch our products there this year; and believe the Indian market has a huge potential”, says Water-Gen founder
Kohavi.
"There is an ongoing water shortage crisis worldwide, with no solution in the foreseeable future. Many developing countries cannot provide pure potable water to their residents. In many residential locations water from the tap is available only a few hours a day, and even then it is highly contaminated. Residents in these locations rely on packaged water (bottles or cans) as a source of drinking water. Under these conditions, water-from-air is one of the best solutions available for the provision of fresh, pure, potable
water".
