<strong>EWA</strong><br />
Extraction of Water from Air<br />
The <strong>EWA</strong>III produces<br />
clean, pure water<br />
by extracting h2o molecules<br />
from the atmosphere.
The Goals:<br />
• To access a new, unlimited, renewable<br />
source of water.<br />
• To create an endless supply of clean<br />
water at nearly any location in the world.<br />
• To provide this water in an energy efficient,<br />
environmentally friendly way<br />
and at a relatively low cost.
The Answer:<br />
<strong>EWA</strong>III<br />
A machine that produces<br />
clean, pure water<br />
by extracting h2o molecules<br />
from the atmosphere.
<strong>EWA</strong>III<br />
You can have the<br />
convenience of<br />
industrial quantities of<br />
fresh, pure water<br />
at your location,<br />
even in the desert.<br />
In fact, anywhere!
Unique Technology<br />
The <strong>EWA</strong>III uses<br />
ground-breaking new technology<br />
to run efficiently and economically,<br />
whilst using very little energy.<br />
How much water can be<br />
extracted from the air?<br />
There are approximately<br />
40,000 cubic metres of water<br />
in one square kilometre of air<br />
& it is constantly renewable.
The Technology<br />
<strong>EWA</strong> Technology involves three complementary processes:<br />
1. Adsorption of water from the air on solid desiccant.<br />
2. Desorption of the absorbed water.<br />
3. Water condensation and quality adjustment.<br />

Modular Design<br />
<strong>EWA</strong>III is designed as a modular system,<br />
starting with the <strong>EWA</strong>III20,<br />
that produces 10,000 litres of water daily.<br />
More machines may be added,<br />
More machines may be added,<br />
to produce up to<br />
1,000,000 litres of water daily.
Energy Used<br />
The <strong>EWA</strong>III uses only<br />
10 kW-h of electricity and<br />
25,000 Kcal of energy<br />
to produce 1,000 litres of water.<br />
Any form of energy can be used,<br />
including any kind of residual heat.
Installation<br />
The <strong>EWA</strong>III is self-contained,<br />
the size of a standard shipping container.<br />
It can be transported to the site and<br />
positioned on any flat surface.<br />
The only installation required<br />
is the coupling of the energy source,<br />
the heater and the <strong>EWA</strong>III unit.
Operation & Maintenance<br />
<strong>EWA</strong>III machines are fully automatic.<br />
Air filtration is not required,<br />
though the water produced is<br />
totally fresh and pure.<br />
The desiccant does not absorb<br />
any air pollution.<br />
Regular maintenance is minimal.
The Environment<br />
The <strong>EWA</strong>III will operate<br />
in any environment,<br />
where the temperature ranges<br />
from 5° to 45° Celsius<br />
and<br />
with a minimum of<br />
20% relative humidity.
Environmental Impact<br />
This technology has<br />
no environmental impact.<br />
It is at least carbon neutral<br />
& it may produce carbon credits<br />
(depending on which energy is used).<br />
It does not produce<br />
any waste or residue.
Industry Potential<br />
<strong>EWA</strong>III machines have great potential<br />
in water intensive industries,<br />
where (traditional) natural water sources<br />
are not readily available.<br />
They can be installed anywhere and<br />
do not need any piping or pumping.
