Egypt’s National Research Institute of Astronomy and Geophysics (NRIAG) unveiled a purely domestic water-from-air innovation marking a massive leap in providing water security, RT Arabic reported.
A researcher at the institute successfully designed and manufactured an advanced device capable of generating high-efficiency drinking water directly from atmospheric humidity.
The Egyptian Patent Office, an affiliate of the Academy of Scientific Research and Technology, granted the innovation Patent No. (31159).
This invention is the culmination of extensive research efforts led by a researcher at NRIAG’s Space Research Laboratory, Mohamed Yehia al-Imam Helaly, aimed at delivering a practical and decentralized solution to address water scarcity.
The device utilizes advanced technology to extract moisture from the air and convert it into pure drinking water, with the added capability of simultaneously providing both hot and cold water.
It boasts a production capacity of up to 15 liters per day, with efficiency increasing significantly in high-humidity areas.
Furthermore, its compact design allows for easy utilization in households, field sites, and remote areas.
This invention represents a new milestone in NRIAG’s record of achievements and directly contributes to the objectives of Egypt Vision 2030, which aims to localize green technology and bolster national water security.
