Despite the fact that at the moment, the question of depletion of drinking water is not raised too often, however, fresh water is gradually ending, so many companies today are engaged in creating solutions for “alternative” extraction of water. One of these companies is an American company ZeroMassWater, which introduced the home system receiving water directly from the air.
The basis of this system are solar hydropanels that looks almost indistinguishable from the usual solar panels, except for the fact that below them are the special metal cavity. Solar hydropanels with a fan driven air and running it through the inside special material that pulls moisture from the air. Thereafter, the resulting water flows into the tank located under hydropanel is cleaning it to a state close to the distilled water. After that, the water is enriched with minerals and it becomes suitable for consumption. In addition, hydropanels a standard solar battery, which provides the necessary energy for all internal components. One unit from ZeroMassWater produces up to 5 liters of water daily.
However, if you have planned to buy such a setup, this will result in a tidy sum. One set from ZeroMassWater worth $ 2,000, and the installation will have to spend another $ 500. The first installations are already being tested in Lebanon, Ecuador, Jordan, Philippines, Mexico, UAE, UK and USA. In January 2018, the developers plan to demonstrate the device to the public during CES 2018, which will be held in Las Vegas.
