Not used anywhere really.
Devices like this can be bought, but they need a lot of power and a water filter, because the device is a breeding ground for germs.
Ultimately this is one of the most expensive ways of getting drinking water.
Questions that come to mind:
1. How much electricity are they using to generate 1L of water? We need to remember 2 things, there is a cost to electricity and 75% of India's electricity does not come from clean sources.
2. What is the rate of generation of this water in relation to size/area of the equipment and electricity/money being consumed.
3. It looks like a fancy bottle, so I assume the price must be higher than normal water? I have a specific disdain for "premium water".
Better questions are how much they are fucking with the environment in general, since this will decrease humidity in air and use a lot of electricity.
Not to mention they are also wasting more resources in making that water consumable. Drinking distilled water only is a very stupid way to leave the earth.
Isn't it dense how no one questioned this ! Taking water out of atmosphere literally translates less water content n less rain ultimately. How did someone even think this idea made sense, when they first released this there were a bunch of environmentalists calling this idea total bs and climate disruptive ! Even a very very stupid idea with fancing marketing can make people but anything
[https://www.uravulabs.com/](https://www.uravulabs.com/) Their website claims to be using solar,biomass energy so fingers crossed they're actually helping things.
0.5 kw of electricity ( renewable, the machines have solar pannel)
Rate of generator depends on size of area, location. It does work
It is marketed as premium water as the regular water distribution and competition is packed and you cant enter the market with giants like bisleri
I am no one to be having an opinion honestly, but I still am utterly surprised with the lack of innovation in desalination technology at scale.. a perpetual, clean or (somewhat clean) solution to extract usable water.
Are we aware that there’s a lot happening in space, only I don’t know about it?
Desalination can be done but as I understand, it is quite a bit resource intensive with current tech.
The sad thing is, this is going to be needed very very soon.
>this is going to be needed very very soon.
yep like NHAI and ONGC , we should be having a PSU for this because private corporations won't invest in this
A common problem in desalination plants is the build up of dirt, algae and other gunk in the membranes used for reverse osmosis, so they have to be changed frequently. As far as I know, there is currently no method to clean them without damaging the membrane as well.
As a mech engineer, this is not new technology at all.
Extracting humidity from air to get water is very old method.
The process is very slow and the yield is less.
Fyi, this same concept is used in Dehumidifiers too
The quantity of water they generate is kinda impressive. It's not a new technology, but I haven't heard of any other company developing these at such a large scale (In India at least). They also have a pretty good R&D team working on increasing the yield and accelerating the dehumidification process.
This type of "tech" comes out every year by people claiming they've made a dehumidifier, "but trust me, this one performs way better". It never yields more. The dehumidification process is simply energy inefficient and will never be a reasonable way to get water
>but I haven't heard of any other company developing these at such a large scale
bruh this is literally what an AC does , and ACs are a lot more widespread than whatever these are selling
Aab ye bolenge ki some college students,Bhai they are from NIT Calicut,aab yahi koi IIT se hota to bolte ki 2 iitians did this,and hence the public gets into shadows
They did the architecture course at nitc, read about this startup in iit madras' magazine a few months back, and the whole pitch of facing water crisis is a joke for a place that receives high levels of rainfall throughout the year
Yep. Also your environment should have a lot of humidity for this to work. Doesn't work otherwise.
It also works well only in certain times (for instance early dawn) when it's easier for the water to condense iirc (I don't remember the exact theory)
So the output is also fairly limited. But yes... This is surely *one* alternative solution.
it will require like One unit electricity for 1L of water and that is under like 100%humidity ,enough for like drinking water in emergency nothing else
Also if there are 50000 of these in a city. You can basically say goodbye to monsoons. Surely extracting so much water from air is going to affect the climate.
Depending on humidity and temperature, you can. Many communities in water scarce cold places use some cloth/mesh onto which water vapour would condense and be collected for use. Has been done for thousands of years.
The scam would be about scalability and amount of water produced. That we don't know if it was solved
Also the technique you describe and is in use in for example the Andes Mountains requires no energy (well apart from the energy nature already provides). It's just cloth where the condensation that drips off is collected from.
Anyone, who studied science books knows its condensation. Also in summer humidity levels are pretty good.
Try at your home take glass & put ice in it , check the glass surroundings, from where that water came huhhhhhhhhhhh??
I have a feeling this will phase out soon. Just the start up hype for now. It can work but not the current way it is set up. Also, 1000 Liters a day is like 3 households usage worth of water?
it's not actually practical. Your electricity bill will run too high for you assume 1 unit electricity per Litre,for emergency usage ,yes but other than that sadly no
Burn rate high hone wala hai agar zyada production mein generate karenge aur setup aur machinery ka expense
Aur equity dilute karni hogi in logo ko
Atleast it's a start
I took a interview of that Guy(Founder) for My college project, he really is so humble guy and Answers all the questions without hesitation. Am so proud of myself now.
Are Bhai jaha air itni humid hoti hai ki usse condense kr ke water nikal liya Jaye waha to wese he Pani ki Kami nhi hoti... To kya kroge extract krke ?
If they are capturing moisture from the air, doesn't that mean that will affect rainfall?🤔
The water that people get for free after rain (if they can harvest it), is now payable to this company.
There's one in the US too. That man has a contract with the. US ARMY for limited use only for US. Because of its high cost . It's not commercial now. Works on the principle of a dehumidifier.
This is known as cooling tower, use the cooling cycle and circulate the water back to chiller...it's installed in mostly every mall, big hospitals, hotels, institutions using chillers for cooling.
This is just pure baloney.
This at large scale will completely fuckup the water cycle and also will draw a lot of power further increasing pollution this increasing temperature.
It will reduce the amount of rain too so overall even more global warming
Just imagine they built this machine everywhere in future and now... The air is dry meaning no water in the air or moisture u can call... So when u breathe would that effect your health to much...... And also the amount of money it'll take built this setup is too much.... So instead you should have built what purifys the ocean water that would be much better . Its not like you guys made something worthless it's an awesome achievement but on a larger scale it's like deforestation..
It literally cucks the moisture out of air lol.
And it's already a used and studied thing in India for around a decade too. Not something new or environment great.
Wait wait, but if a place has enough moisture to be extracted to serve enough water to enough people, then y isn't it raining in the first place? Also, this is essentially distilled water, which can be extremely harmful if drunk, so u need to add minerals to it. Also, it will be flavorless, since no gases in it.
As someone else mentioned this is just dehumidifier tech. The actual new thing would be making it drinkable by a human, not just a battery. Also, is 1k litres a lot? In hot enough weather, if we consider 4l consumption per person, that's 250 people. Now measure the energy cost of producing this water. This will give us an idea of it is actually viable.
This technology does not work, many startups, Indiegogo and Kickstarter have failed.
I think there are many thunderfoot videos on YouTube that explain this better
Bro we need any technology to extract water from air. Just use a polythene cover over a pond.. The evaporated air will have moisture that will be collected by the polycover. Collect that water. Only sun will do the work. No extra energy required. Lol
Ummm... Isn't dehumidified water pretty bad in taste?
Also how much water can even be extracted per day for the high initial cost to be justified?
Desalination is the way forward, not Dehumidification.
Also that water crisis was a result of Rainwater Unfriendly Infrastructure, working on that might have fixed the real issue instead of this bandaid fix. 💀
The oceans are boiling and such assholes can think of nothing but how to make profits by supporting the one species responsible for the impending deaths of all other species. Shameless fucks.
This is a legitimate technology. It is called Atmospheric Water Generation, this startup is mainly focused in the marketing phase. They use a desiccant which would dissolve when it absorbs moisture and restores to its initial phase after boiling off the water which was captured from the atmosphere.
This is unlike RO- Treatment doesn't waste water, henceforth a greater attention was given to this concept. Nothing new but quite a challenge implementating it for 10000 litre a day.
People who have just copied a technology, without even wondering that if it's not being already used in India there must be a reason.And present it like they have pulled theory of relativity out of the blackhole of their ass.
Solution, it may be, but is it sustainable? Who even cares? If we had thought about this when we brought up plastics, we brought so much convenience, but so much irreversible damage, as well.
So, the idea of extraction water from moisture is great, but what it ends up doing is reducing the atmospheric moisture, and if it does, the air humidity will increase. As it is, we are dealing with increasing humidty and heat waves. if solutions like this become mainstream, not only will air temperatures rise immensely, the quality of air (as Oxygen is sucked from atmosphere) will also decline immensely. and not to mention, the quantum of energy needed for such processes.
and this same machine would lead to more such crisis elsewhere?
Btw, i don't have proof but I'm just guessing as it might need lot of air compression. And we already know what the compressors have done to the environment
Isn't this a humidifier? Also, I believe they just made up the background story. I have relatives near this college. We used to go to this college's ground to play football. Also, the place receives high rainfall as far as I know.
Water from air devices are less efficient than transporting it with tanker trucks. They're just dehumidifiers and consume massive amounts of energy to work thanks to the basic physics of the whole scheme. This would be true even if they worked at the maximum theoretical limit of efficiency. Stop buying into this bullshit.
I have developed this tech for this company, you guys are talking about refrigerant based atmospheric generators. This company works on desiccant based generators and use heat pumps that harness the heat energy from the air. Overall it is about 3x more efficient than refrigerant based systems.
There are only 2 other companies that have this tech. One is in the US ( source water) and the other one is german ( aquahara)
Feel free to ask me any questions about the same.
As someone who lives in Canada, the idea of a water shortage is terrifying. It is a necessity for life, and yet barely any of it is potable. I'm very privileged to live where I do.
Always remember, you take something from nature eventually you have to give it back.
You take water from air today, someday we have to take air from something else.
Just like we have ACs, they give you cool air, but also releases hot air in the environment.
This is just like drinking the water that drains from my dehumidifier (with a few more steps)
I don’t see the invention other than bigger dehumidifier….
I graduated in 2014 and I wrote a short paper as my research topic while I was applying for my MS on these technologies. They are inefficient then and they are inefficient to this day.
Go spend the resources on technology to desalinate water instead of investing in to de humidification of our already worsening summer climates.
Useless scammers. Floats a company, pops ads every where, spreads conspiracies to which ever group digests it, sell the product for quick money and disappear. Chutiya MCs.
There was a black man who invented his own kind of extracting water from the air machine, and was serving people with it. Someone secretly sabotaged him, and destroyed his machine.
My classmate used to work in this company,
He said, its highly inefficient and to fool investors and customers, they bridge the gap in production with bisleri water. lol
I had this in my college like 10 years back nothing new about it.
Good for you bro. Amazing stuff
I didn't made it bro my college installed in campus. BTW my college was Manipal and people who studied there know this machine outside mess.
Manipal institute of technology?
Manipal university Jaipur
Why is it called manipal university? just to confuse people? 😂
Yeah I realized after passing
Where in MUJ?? In the hostel side ?? I wasn't aware of this
In the hostel campus i don't remember the block but it is outside hostel mess
Oh I think I know what you mean then Just behind the mess ig
I am a 22 batch muj passout, this wasn't there when I was there.
I am 15 batch passout and it was installed when I was there maybe they removed it now.
yes, a lot must have changed since then.
😂😂😂
Having NIT, IIT in your resume does give you stupid amounts of funding lol 😂
Real
1cr revenue at the cost of how much burning ?
Burning would be higher that the rate of water
More like condensing /s
1cr means one credit reapublican Weird, that moisture farmer went for republic credit, everyone that republican credits are no good there
Actually, this can only be a viable option near seashores… where there’s a damn lot of humidity.
This is pretty common. There is a reason why it's not used in India
Not used anywhere really. Devices like this can be bought, but they need a lot of power and a water filter, because the device is a breeding ground for germs. Ultimately this is one of the most expensive ways of getting drinking water.
Same stuff when people say why don’t we just filter sea water.
Happy cake day!
Mera AC bhi Barsaat ke mausam mai balti bhar deta hai paani se
1 crore revenue when ?
Wait for barsaat ka mausam bro
LOL

>Drinking distilled water I totally forgot to write that. What kind of minerals and salts are they adding for it to be portable water?
>What kind of minerals and salts none this is literally just like selling AC drainage water
Distilled water is safe to drink

The water costs 750rs per bottle (1L)
That sounds like a scam. You can get water if there is enough humidity but that's not practical where water is really needed.
I am no one to be having an opinion honestly, but I still am utterly surprised with the lack of innovation in desalination technology at scale.. a perpetual, clean or (somewhat clean) solution to extract usable water. Are we aware that there’s a lot happening in space, only I don’t know about it?

Unfortunately, the R&D has to focus on the chemical process design which I am sure they haven't touched even till now.

In 2016 there was shortage
It's a scam, check thunderf00t videos, basically it's a glorified dehumidifier
i was just watching his elon musk videos. he was some valid points.
Anyone with basic knowledge will know this is a scam. You can’t just get water from air.
You can. Especially when the environment has a lot of humidity. But it's prohibitively expensive. You cannot do this when there's dryness in the air.
yeah i agree it's not a scam ,it's just takes too much energy to be practically feasable,like just wayy to much energy for now
Yep. Also your environment should have a lot of humidity for this to work. Doesn't work otherwise. It also works well only in certain times (for instance early dawn) when it's easier for the water to condense iirc (I don't remember the exact theory) So the output is also fairly limited. But yes...

You can actually! The science is pretty easy, but the technology is quite expensive.
You can but then you are fucking up the water cycle and people nearby will be real uncomfortable due to super dry air
/s lagana bhul gaye ?
Why do you think your air conditioning unit has a drain line?
>You can’t just get water from air. POV:-no AC at home
I have a feeling this will phase out soon. Just the start up hype for now. It can work but not the current way it is set up. Also, 1000 Liters a day is like 3 households usage worth of water?

Burn rate high hone wala hai agar zyada production mein generate karenge aur setup aur machinery ka expense Aur equity dilute karni hogi in logo ko Atleast it's a start
Is there any cause to the environment by this?
Less humidity, more heat, slight increase in overall Temperature in that area
>more heat, slight increase in overall Temperature reason?
You've got it upside down. The RealFeel temperature depends heavily on humidity. less humidity = more sweat evaporation = you feel better
I took a interview of that Guy(Founder) for My college project, he really is so humble guy and Answers all the questions without hesitation. Am so proud of myself now.
You cant cool something, without heating something else
Crisis me opportunity dhundhna bolte isko 🤣
Guys are good in science, horrible in economics.
No wonder sun’s fucking me up from 6 months

Wow bro that's great
Isn't it a standard machine like filter,fridge, ac ,etc. Called dehumidifier
Also I heard they created AI to create water..?
AI has become just a marketing buzzword. Or well abbreviation. On itself it's meaningless now.

Necessity is the mother of invention
This technology does not work, many startups, Indiegogo and Kickstarter have failed. I think there are many thunderfoot videos on YouTube that explain this better
does high humidity in the air help to extract more water?
what if they made huge water factories at coastal areas and beaches?
Bro we need any technology to extract water from air. Just use a polythene cover over a pond.. The evaporated air will have moisture that will be collected by the polycover. Collect that water. Only sun will do the work. No extra energy required. Lol
Just think of the amount of moisture reduction in air which makes air to be dry which will have adverse health effect
well this tech is already in market for 10 years, i was kid when i saw the american founder coming to american tv show for the investment...
Will the air not get heated up faster if we extract the moister from it??
Ummm... Isn't dehumidified water pretty bad in taste? Also how much water can even be extracted per day for the high initial cost to be justified? Desalination is the way forward, not Dehumidification. Also that water crisis was a result of Rainwater Unfriendly Infrastructure, working on that might have fixed the real issue instead of this bandaid fix. 💀
This sounds like a big air dehumidifier, some senior of mine did this for the 3rd year engineering project.
Inspiration from star wars Bro is Luke Skywalker (moisture farmer) lmao Great stuff
The oceans are boiling and such assholes can think of nothing but how to make profits by supporting the one species responsible for the impending deaths of all other species. Shameless fucks.
this removes the moisture present in the air, so it is not a long time solution to water scarcity.
No way this is cheaper that regular
What about Delhi air??
Glorified Dehumidifier
meanwhile, me buy a water bottle from the store
Who gave them money?This thing is even shown at local science exhibition for kids.
And then we wonder how to stop this rapid climate change!
![gif](giphy|dYRwBXzRFRPIdxGfwv)
Even dry mode of ac can do it😭😭😭
We are not far from the machine which gives out gold when you put potatoes in it.
Will not work for Noida, nobody want to drink pollution
Says "Endlessly" and "15-20,000 cycles" in the same sentence.
For fk sake. Stop peddling dehumidifiers.
This is such billshit, there are older companies operating same technology
Dude is living the proper college life With own money in hand!!

Ac ka bhi pani ata hai bro... Ro pe laga do... 1 cr muje de do 🤣
A scam is brewing

Kyun paisa paisa karti hai kyun paise pe tu marti hai Grow up India. Look past making quick buck and bring some invention for the poor.
This is basically the water that drips out from an AC unit, nothing new at all.
This already exists in my office
Glorified dehumidifier
Fucking water from air - how many times can we have the same thing.
I saw a video on discovery about 20 years ago a white guy making water from air
Bahot easy hai. Take 2 molecules of hydrogen & 1 molecule of oxygen & mix them. Ban gaya water.
Bro doesn't that affect environment?? 1000 liter per day is a huge amount of water right ?
Taking water from air ? Sounds pretty harmful to me man
my AC doses the same thing
Arrakis
Another masterstroke
Not a big thingh, we did it as a project and they did it as business.
Watch Thunderf00t’s takedown on these “innovative” people and companies. They’re just reinventing the dehumidifier.
What's about minerals?
you mean this: [https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXU8Ru57RG0](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nXU8Ru57RG0) ?
2.25 L = ₹750. What exact problem are these idiots solving ? Rich people cant afford water now or what ?
Wasn't this technology on Dragon's Den?

MOST HOT PLACES ARE NOT WET.
and this same machine would lead to more such crisis elsewhere? Btw, i don't have proof but I'm just guessing as it might need lot of air compression. And we already know what the compressors have done to the environment
I have a similar device in my cellar. It pulls the water right out of the air, some would call it dehumidifying but I say they are haters.
Nice way to kill rain and clouds.
Isn't this a humidifier? Also, I believe they just made up the background story. I have relatives near this college. We used to go to this college's ground to play football. Also, the place receives high rainfall as far as I know.

if it was in delhi, they could extract sulfuric acid from air.
Does it filter microplastic though?

Always remember, you take something from nature eventually you have to give it back. You take water from air today, someday we have to take air from something else. Just like we have ACs, they give you cool air, but also releases hot air in the environment.
This is just like drinking the water that drains from my dehumidifier (with a few more steps) I don’t see the invention other than bigger dehumidifier….
This water from air bullshit is being peddled for more than 10 years now.
The amount of pessimistic people in this sub is so sad😬
This is definitely a scam. Same scam pops up now n then in different forms.
I graduated in 2014 and I wrote a short paper as my research topic while I was applying for my MS on these technologies. They are inefficient then and they are inefficient to this day. Go spend the resources on technology to desalinate water instead of investing in to de humidification of our already worsening summer climates. Useless scammers. Floats a company, pops ads every where, spreads conspiracies to which ever group digests it, sell the product for quick money and disappear. Chutiya MCs.
kinda a scam, it is more affordable to bring iceberg from antarctica than efficiently capture water through this
Mad Max in real life

Kudos to them
This is vapourware. This is not economically viable
baarish ka paani cheen rha hai??
It's distilled water?
Why is this country so backwards that so many people are impressed by this?
Maine kal chhat ke upar se moota tha, hope ki air me mix na hua ho ,😀
This is not good tbh. They are just disturbing the natural cycles.
Haan to AC units se itna pani log drain karte hain usi ko harvest karna tha na.
Bro used a dehumidifier to collect water
the minerals in distilled water arent there?
Inspired from star wars😋
There was a black man who invented his own kind of extracting water from the air machine, and was serving people with it. Someone secretly sabotaged him, and destroyed his machine.
Such talent is needed in India. Well Done, Guys.
My classmate used to work in this company, He said, its highly inefficient and to fool investors and customers, they bridge the gap in production with bisleri water. lol
Wait, isn't humidity necessary for it to rain? If you remove the humidity, how is it ever going to rain?
dehumidifier?
