How can water be harvested out of thin air?

We re-interpretated the Warka Waters to extract water out of thin air, as a remotely deployable system, independent of exisitng infrastructure. This particular prototype is designed for water scarce areas in and around Delhi NCR areas, Haryana and Rajasthan.

​

The original design was made by Arturo Vittori, as inspired by the indigenous homes of the Dorze Community in Ethiopia. A simple diamond lattice makes a lightweight tower for aerial moisture to be caught and percolated down to the Matka Filter designed by The Enactus team. Once deployed, the Warka System encourages a nodal behaviour of rural community and agriculture.
