What You Need To Know About Atmosphere Water Generator

By Iva Cannon


During desperate time, you may need desperate measures like purchasing an atmospheric water extractor to make clean and safe water for drinking. An AWG is a device used to harvest moisture from the atmosphere in an environmental friendly way. When clean and safe water for drinking is scarce, using an AGW is an efficient way to produce it. There are some things that any individual ought to know before deciding to purchase or use an atmosphere water generator.

Since it uses the same principle as an air conditioner or refrigerator, the components are more or less the same. Some of these parts include the condenser, evaporator, compressor, a fan, pipes, and filters among others. These parts are basic and widely used in the cooling condensation type of atmosphere generators. Unlike wet desiccation process which uses chemicals, the components are different and slightly modified.

The pump and compressor forces the refrigerant for condensation and evaporation processes through the condenser and evaporator respectively. This process requires dew point to be attained so that it facilitate condensation of air. For continuity of this process, a fan is mounted on the air-entry point. Water that drops from the air is collected by the pipes and capillary tubes. Bacteria and particles present in the air are filter out.

There are basic requirements for this whole process to work effectively. It has to do with humidity, which should be about 30% to 40% and temperatures of above 18 degrees Celsius. Altitude also plays a critical role since high altitude interferes with the whole process. These requirements are a limitation to the cooling condensation process since wet desiccation method is not affected by environmental factors.

The market is filled with many type of atmosphere generators all made to fit different areas of applications. These generators are used to provide clean water both in large scale industrial application such as military as well as domestic purpose in small scale use. For home purposes, the simple rather type of process is used to extract moisture from air while desiccation is applied in commercial production.

Atmospheric generators are usually very expensive but it may depend on the size and area of application. For this reason, an individual needs to make early preparation before deciding to purchase one for home or commercial use. It is better to make financial arrangements if you are going to purchase either a small generator or one for bigger application

Individuals who find it difficult to buy new ones due to cost need not to worry since they can make one at home as a DIY project. A few components are needed to complete this project and may include: a dehumidifier, filters, tubes and voltage regular among other small parts all cutting the cost by a sixth of the new one. There are guide books and instructions online to help you complete assembly by yourself.

Depending on where you reside from, you can find an atmospheric generator in a local consumer electronics store. For ease access, these stores have strong online presence as well as online shopping platforms that will guarantee you ease search and ultimately the purchase. It is wise to conduct wide research on available types, cost and offers of the best atmospheric water generators
