A portable drinking water generator produces up to 30 liters of water per day from the air

The invention is the work of a group of Tunisian engineers and limited to converting the humidity of the air into drinking watersomething that some devices already do, but with a degree of efficiency never seen before.

The machine provides access to a clean, safe and stable water source, even in dry regions such as North Africa. It is an ideal system for schools and towns without potable water, as well as for factories, offices and hotels that want to reduce their consumption of ground or bottled water to prevent plastic pollution.

The process by which Kumulus-1 works is simple: in fact, reproduces the morning dew phenomenon in itself. It captures moisture in the air, cools it and condenses it into water and stores it in an inner tank. A cleaning filter at the top removes contaminants from the air to ensure the drinkability of the liquid.

The first machine was installed at a school in the rural town of El Bayadha, where access to water is limited. There, this hydrogen generator was hailed as delivering 30 liters of water a day to this school.

However, its large-scale production is still awaiting permission from the Tunisian government.

The great quality of the machine, besides its ease of use, is its completely autonomous character, as it does not need to be connected to an electric current. It has a photovoltaic solar panel that produces the electricity required for the process.so it can be placed anywhere.

The company reminds on its website that 1,000 million people on the planet currently do not have access to drinking water, with 31% of the world’s schools lacking this resource.

The innovation that Kumulus-1 represents could largely and simply solve an everyday human tragedy such as the death of 500,000 children under the age of 5 due to poor water quality.
