Atmospheric Water Generator: Collecting Drinking Water from the Air


The good news is that because all air has some water in it, water is always near at hand when you are thirsty. The bad news is that you cannot simply drink the water trapped in the form of water vapor from the air. Leave it to scientists and inventors to come up with a viable solution for this age old problem. There is now an amazing answer to this quandary called an atmospheric water generator. These machines work by harvesting the moisture from the air and condensing it into common, everyday H2O. The science behind how these work is well-known to you if your house contains an air conditioner, a refrigerator, or even a de-humidifer.

Top Energy Solutions: Why Water Delivery Matters in the Third World


Many people in developed countries take tap water for granted, often opting for tastier bottled options. However, for much of the world's population, access to clean drinking water without a lot of effort being required is a genuine concern. Because many locations without access to clean water also have difficulties with getting electricity in, solar-powered solutions that require little maintenance work best. Solar Distillation Works Well One of the best energy solutions available is solar distillation for communities that require water. There are no filters that require maintenance, nor do they require existing electricity. No matter whether the water comes from an existing well, a freshwater body, or the sea, these distillers will provide fresh, clean water. The technology behind distillation is proven to be effective.

Get the Right Attention for Your Hotel and Go Green

It is no longer news that the environment needs our help. What may be news is how going green can benefit your company as much as it can benefit the planet. Surely, being a good global citizen and leading by example can help you rest easy at night, but increased revenues, lower energy costs, and even some tax breaks can help you sleep even better.

A Better Way of Chilling

With the threat of global warming looming ever closer, it comes as no surprise that more and more organizations and individuals are looking for ways to leave behind as fewer carbon footprint as possible. One of the most common way that this can be done is with the use of naturally occurring heat. This is the same principle being used in an absorption chiller.

Harnessing Microturbine and Wind Turbine Energy May Be the Answer For Companies Looking For Alternative Portable Power


Microturbine technology has certainly evolved since the first microturbines were first developed back in the 1970's. Those first microturbines were used to power nuclear power plants. When you look up the exact scientific definition for microturbine the generally used word is used for high speed gas turbines. Standard Microturbine technology has certainly grown and expanded considerably. Utilizing technology from jet engines to make electricity is still the stuff that dreams are made of. Now emerging from four standard microturbine energies: auxiliary powered units, small gas turbines, automotive development, gas turbines and turbochargers. This harnessed energy can be used on farms to make electricity from cow manure. Manure contains a substantial amount of of methane, making it a good energy source for this purpose. It can also be utilized to effectively to run commercial buildings, mining camps, schools and to power offsite structures in need of portable and efficient portable power.

How Absorption Chillers Work Turn Waste Heat into Usable Energy

The absorption chillers take the excess heat generated by machines, cool it, and turn it into usable energy. There is usually a lot of heat-making machines in factories. And factories are all about getting energy wherever possible. That is why most factories will have an absorption chiller. The absorption chillers first cycle involves refrigerating vapors so that they lose their concentration. This takes place in the evaporator. Most of the time lithium bromide is the absorbing agent used for this. Most companies who utilize an absorption us lithium bromide because it has a high affinity for water, is pretty cheap, and is non-toxic.

Efficiency of AWG as a Water and Energy Solution

Air water generation (AWG) is not a new concept. In fact, the technology has already been proven and tested in some of the world’s drought-prone areas. Perhaps one of the main selling points of AWG is it costs less and consumes less energy, compared to the production of bottled water, which, according to Phys.org, costs about 5.6 to 10.2 million joules of energy per liter or more than 2,000 times the energy required to produce tap water. In places where there are no water systems, AWGs prove to be a better water and energy solution, although the amount of water generated will depend on certain factors.
