You may know us from Fluides-Concept SAS in Targon, France. We have been working on AWG technology for the past five years. Unfortunately, our engineer at Fluides-Concept SAS did not possess the necessary skills and knowledge to build a fully functional AWG system, and as a result. Fluides-Concept SAS engineer and shareholder, Franck Legras, requested on 8/11/2024 that the courts in Bordeaux place Fluides-Concept SAS into bankruptcy. Please pay attention to https://www.aquatethys-atmospheric-water.com/en and https://www.aquatethys-atmospheric-water.com/en/revendeurs and https://thewaternetwork.com/organization-c6k/aquatethys-T0wYmAhmsTdU4N3RLnXWog/home also concerns the bankruptcy. If this bankruptcy causes you any issues, please feel free to contact us. However, we are now working with professional engineers who have the expertise we need. You can look forward to the first quarter of 2025, as we currently have four AWG units undergoing testing.

Expanding our commitment to sustainable water solutions, we're introducing advanced grey and black water treatment technologies alongside innovative desalination systems. Our integrated approach, including Atmospheric Water Generation (AWG), addresses diverse water needs, delivering clean, usable water in even the most resource-scarce environments.

Drinking Water!

The global demand for clean drinking water is critical, and lack of access continues to affect billions of people. Here's a breakdown of the current drinking water needs, as well as statistics on the people impacted by water scarcity and the human toll of inadequate access:

1. Global Drinking Water Needs

• Daily requirement: The WHO suggests a minimum of 50–100 liters (13–26 gallons) per person per day to meet basic needs, including drinking, cooking, and hygiene.
• Total daily requirement: With a global population of approximately 7.9 billion, the planet needs between 395–790 billion liters of clean water per day to meet basic needs.
• Annual need: This equates to 144–288 trillion liters of fresh water each year for basic living needs alone.

2. People Lacking Access to Drinking Water

• Around 2 billion people lack access to safely managed drinking water services. This means that approximately 1 in 4 people worldwide struggle to find reliable and clean water sources.
• Many of those affected live in regions facing high water stress, including parts of Sub-Saharan Africa, South Asia, and the Middle East.

3. Deaths Related to Unsafe Water Access

• Annual deaths: It is estimated that over 500,000 deaths occur annually due to waterborne diseases, such as diarrhea, cholera, dysentery, and typhoid, which result from contaminated drinking water.
• Child mortality: Tragically, children are especially vulnerable, with around 1,000 children under the age of five dying each day from preventable diarrheal diseases linked to unsafe drinking water and poor sanitation.

The statistics underscore the urgent need for sustainable solutions like Atmospheric Water Generation (AWG), desalination, and improved grey and black water management to provide safe drinking water and reduce water-related illnesses and fatalities.

Atmospheric Water Generation (AWG), greywater, and black water treatment technologies each produce clean drinking water through different methods:. 

1. Atmospheric Water Generation (AWG)

• How it works: AWG captures humidity from the air and condenses it into liquid water, similar to how a dehumidifier works. It pulls in moist air, cools it below its dew point, and collects the condensed water.
• Purification: After condensation, the collected water undergoes filtration and purification processes, including activated carbon and UV sterilization, to remove impurities and microorganisms.
• Benefits: AWG is ideal for areas with high humidity and can be especially useful in arid regions with limited groundwater sources or where desalination isn't feasible.

2. Grey Water Treatment

• Definition: Grey water is wastewater from showers, sinks, washing machines, and other sources that doesn't contain human waste.
• Treatment process:
  • Filtration: Initial filtration removes larger particles like hair and soap residues.
  • Biological treatment: Microorganisms break down organic matter in the greywater.
  • Chemical or UV disinfection: This step kills pathogens, making the water safer.
• Final output: While greywater is often used for irrigation or flushing, advanced treatment can make it suitable for drinking, though this is less common. For drinking water, additional processes like reverse osmosis (RO) are often used.

3. Black Water Treatment

• Definition: Black water is wastewater that contains sewage (human waste) and comes from toilets and sometimes kitchen drains.
• Treatment process:
  • Primary treatment: Physical processes like sedimentation separate solid waste from the water.
  • Secondary treatment: Biological treatment uses aerobic and anaerobic bacteria to break down organic waste.
  • Tertiary treatment: Advanced filtration and disinfection, often through chemical treatments or UV light, kill harmful bacteria and viruses.
  • Desalination and RO: If potable water is required, black water undergoes reverse osmosis or other advanced purification methods to achieve drinkable quality.
• Final output: With extensive treatment, black water can be made safe for drinking, although the process is energy-intensive and costly.
