Hydro panels technology ‘sucks’ liquid out of the air, providing drinking water for remote NSW town
A method of producing water from air using hydro panel technology has been introduced to the rural areas of New South Wales.
It is said that this technology, which produces liquids from air for drinking water, will protect the health of the people in rural towns that do not have drinking water facilities, as well as being an environmentally friendly project.
This technology is designed for cities in desert areas fed by well water and people have also asked the government to improve the quality of drinking water in these remote cities.
A remote school in New South Wales has been supplied with water using this renewable technology and the hydropanel system installed in the school is said to produce up to 50 liters of drinking water per day.
The project’s Rob Bartrop said the panel has the ability to absorb water from the air and then add calcium and magnesium to the liquid to make it drinkable.
This system has been developed and tested in the harsh desert environment of Arizona, USA, and has been established in the state of New South Wales.
The program has reduced the use of 5 lakh plastic drinking bottles and is estimated to provide good quality drinking water to 1,500 of the country’s most remote and vulnerable communities.
