Landmark System Filters Moisture in Air to Provide Pure Water for Parched Patrons-

Atmospheric Water Solutions (AWS) recently unveiled its newest water management system at West Coast Green 2009 – dubbed Dewpointe – which holds the ability to extract up to 8 gallons of moisture from the atmosphere daily. The Dewpointe allows consumers to harvest 99.99 percent pure water for roughly 60 cents a gallon; a substantial price decrease from the typical cost of about $2 a gallon when purchasing from a bottled water corporation. To add, the system utilizes the latest water purification technology available and incorporates an advanced microcomputer to analyze temperature and humidity, as well as to manage system functions so that the customer can be assured trouble-free operation and maintenance. Dewpointe works by passing inflowing air through an electrostatic air filter to remove dust and other particles, which is then rapidly chilled to “dew pointe” so that condensation may form on inner coils coated with an FDA-approved food grade shell. The moisture is pooled within the unit and sent through nine various filters, featuring a zero-waste reverse osmosis filter and a UV light sanitation system. Once finished processing, the water is heated or chilled and stored until use. The AWS Dewpointe system is fairly pricey, with a commitment of about $1,600. However, as aquatic pollution and water shortage issues continue to plague America and many other nations around the world, inventive concepts such as this one may be soon invaluable to the welfare of many.
