Atmospheric Water Generation in Dubai
Published on by Water Network Research, Official research team of The Water Network in Business
MAZ Gulf, has partnered with WaterMicronWorld (WMW), a firm that makes nearly 80% of the world atmospheric water generators (AWGs), to build an assembly plant for its ‘FIT’ units in Jebel Ali, Dubai
WMW’s Flow Innovation Technology (FIT) generators can allegedly produce water more cheaply than desalination or reverse osmosis – providing a practical and economical solution to water scarcity.
“This is a breakthrough in the search for sustainable solutions to water shortage globally as a result of shrinking ice caps and lakes due to global warming,” said Miran Ellahee, CEO of MAZ Gulf.
“It has the capacity to generate water in any part of the world, irrespective of the climate. From a business perspective, we believe we are at the forefront of the next billion dollar industry.”
According to WMW, the cost of FIT-generated water at the scale of a 10 million litre per day plant would be $0.0006 per litre or $0.60 cents per cubic meter, compared with the DEWA cost of $0.0025 per litre or $2.50 per cubic meter.
“FIT water generation plants have major advantages over methods such as desalination or reverse osmosis which use existing water sources to clean water,” added Francisco Rodriguez, CEO of WMW.
