🛠 NEMJO Atmospheric Water Generator (AWG)

📌 Problem Statement:

• Freshwater access is limited in arid, semi-arid, and urban polluted regions.
• Conventional water supply methods are expensive or logistically difficult.
• Standard AWG systems require high humidity (>60%) and consume significant power.
• Performance is poor in dusty, low-humidity, or off-grid environments.

Need: A water solution that works efficiently in low-humidity areas and off-grid setups.

✅ NEMJO’s Unique Engineering Solution:

Goal: Extract potable water from air using a power-efficient freezing–defrosting cycle even in harsh conditions.

Core Innovation: Ice-crystal based water capture system for cleaner and more efficient AWG.

🔬 R&D Highlights:

• Utilized low-dew point analysis to optimize ice-based capture.
• Thermal transfer studies to manage freeze and defrost cycles.
• Cleaner water via ice filtration compared to coil condensation.
• Modular prototype includes freezing chamber and defrost basin.

🔧 Key Features:

1. ❄ Freezing & Defrosting: Clean water captured as ice, defrosted in a hygienic basin.
2. 🌡 Adaptive Cycle Control: Smart timing for freeze–defrost based on environment.
3. 🔋 Energy Efficiency: Low power draw; supports solar inverter use.
4. 🧼 Water Filtration: Activated carbon, UV, and optional mineralization.
5. 🏗 Modular Design: 5–50 L/day capacity, easily serviceable in the field.

🌍 Social & Environmental Impact:

• Provides clean water in remote, off-grid, or disaster-hit zones.
• Reduces bottled water reliance and long-distance trucking.
• Climate-resilient: works in dry zones and with solar power.
• Enables decentralized water independence in low-resource settings.
