Atmospheric water generation, explained
An atmospheric water generator, or AWG, is a system that extracts water vapour from ambient air. The air is cooled so the moisture condenses into liquid water, which is then treated, stored and dispensed or distributed.
No incoming water line is required to generate water. The system uses humidity in the surrounding air. It does require electricity, suitable airflow, routine maintenance and the right environmental conditions.
The supplied AW International materials state that the systems are designed to begin producing at approximately 35% relative humidity. Actual output rises or falls with local temperature and humidity.
The compact AWI20L can produce up to 20 liters (approximately 5.3 US gallons) per day at 30°C and 80% relative humidity. The larger AWI1000L has approximately 900 liters (237.8 US gallons) rated daily output and can produce up to 1,000 liters (264.2 US gallons) per day under the same stated conditions.
No. Atmospheric water output depends on temperature, humidity, airflow, installation, maintenance and operating conditions. A site and climate review is recommended for every commercial project.
Product documentation describes filtered air intake, multi-stage water treatment using sediment, carbon and ultrafiltration, UV lamp and UV LED protection, and periodic circulation of stored water.
Maintenance includes cleaning, inspection, filter replacement, UV-system checks and any market-specific service prescribed in the approved manual. The local representative should provide the maintenance program and replacement components.
The systems require electricity and may be evaluated as part of a properly engineered renewable-energy solution. Solar generation, battery storage, inverters and system sizing must be designed by qualified professionals for the selected product and location.
The AWI20L is intended to be supplied in either single-phase 120 VAC or 220 VAC configurations for the destination market. The AWI1000L is currently specified at three-phase 380 V. AW International should confirm the exact configuration, certification and ratings for each country before quotation or installation.
Yes. Qualified volume partners may discuss private-label branding, exterior presentation, packaging and selected configuration. Every program is subject to technical feasibility, volume, compliance and a written agreement.
Yes, subject to technical and commercial review. The AWI20L may be considered as an individual property appliance, while the AWI1000L may support central facilities or community applications.
