Safe drinking water making machine

A patented proprietary product known as WaterMaker derives and produces healthy, safe, purified drinking water from the atmospheric air. It captures water vapours from air before it even touches the earth. Watermaker provides localised source of pure water without any connection to municipal taps, surface or underground water source.

WaterMaker India having its head quarters at Mumbai, owned by Katgara Group-Jeena & Company, is the sole license holder of Atmospheric Water Technologies USA, to introduce this unique technology in India. The machines are available in several generating capacities ranging from 20 litre to 5,000 litre of clean, safe drinking water per day.

There are various capacity models of machines available to meet various consumption needs. The water quality is compliant with WHO/BIS norms and contains no harmful chemicals or minerals. WaterMakers work most efficiently in warm areas with high humidity. As this water producing machine works by converting the humidity present in the air into water, the volume of water generated largely depends on humidity level and atmospheric temperature.

Thus output varies from place to place. The rated output is achieved when the air-water generator is placed in locations where the temperature ranges from 25 to 32 degree Celsius and the RH level ranges from 70 percent- 75 percent. If these factors are higer, water production will be more than the rated capacity of the machine and if these factors are lower, water production will reduce accordingly. It is observed that the machine works wonderfully well in coastal area and north eastern region in India. The blow driven forced air is drawn into the system through electrostatic air filter. Within the machine's exterior housing, a compressor circulates the refrigerant through the coil array in the path of the air. The chilled coils provide a temperature difference between the air and coil surface resulting in condensation.

The heat is removed by a heat exchanger and freeze protection is thermostatically controlled.

The condensation is funneled into a holding tank, where a level switch controls the machines water making cycle. Water in the holding tank is periodically pump-circulated first through an ultraviolet light chamber to kill bacteria, then through series of high and low density charcoal filters which remove solids and oxygenates. Water is dispensed by either a tap or sprout depending on the type of machine. Once the water is produced, the system is ready for dispensing. This ranges from an incorporated drinking fountain to connection to an automated bottling line, dedicated piping or connection to a local distribution system or by attaching multipoint dispensers. Water production costs depend on the cost of power and the capacity of machine. The cost, in optimum conditions, can be as low as Rs 1 per litre.

This is significant saving over the cost of bottled water in medium to long term, with the convenience and reliability factors not found with other sources or methods.
