'The production of drinking water from humidity in the air (AWG) is one of the most important and innovative water extraction solutions available today, used to tackle the growing problem of depleting levels of drinking water in the world.
Within a decade from now, it is believed that 50% of the world's population will live in areas without access to clean, fresh, and safe drinking water.'
You’re probably used to retrieving drinking water from your kitchen tap, but in the future, you could source most of your drinking water from the air in your home instead.
One machine that achieves this is called GENNY, which produces water from thin air.
The machine collects water vapor from the kitchen, condenses it and recycles it into drinking water.
GENNY connects to an electrical power socket and can produce 30 litres of water in one day.
To make sure the water is cleansed and safe for consumption, inside the machine is a purification system. This filters water to remove dust particles and treats it to eliminate any microorganisms or chemical contamination.
A solar-powered version of GENNY has been designed for producing drinking water in more remote locations.
