"España sufre sequías cada vez más intensas y prolongadas" _["Spain suffers droughts that are increasingly long and prolonged"; Interempresas.net]

Water-from-air Resource (WFAR) Resource Charts are available for five sites in Spain
. These sites represent five climate zones. Operating conditions by month for atmospheric water generators range from unreliable to excellent depending on site latitude, elevation, distance inland, and season. Please see the charts for details.

The table below ranks the sites from highest to lowest WFAR Annual Index. Water production is poor or unreliable during the winter months. Hourly water production analyses would be useful for better understanding the feasibility of water-from-air system operation at these sites.

Jamaica location mapJamaica location map (click to enlarge)
Jamaica has a history of droughts. The most recent was in 2013.

A Water-from-air Resource (WFAR) Resource Chart is available for Kingston, Jamaica
. This site (9 m elevation) is in the equatorial | winter dry climate zone which encompasses the entire island country. Operating conditions by month for atmospheric water generators are consistently excellent.

Please see the chart for details. The Water-from-Air Resource Annual Index = 1.22.

#Egypt #Water-from-Air Resource Charts

Egypt location map
Egypt location map (with latitude and longitude). Click to enlarge.
Important environmental issues in Egypt are water scarcity, pollution of the Nile River, solid waste, and loss of biodiversity (UNEP, 2013, Arab Region Atlas of Our Changing Environment, page xiv). Can water-from-air technology address the water scarcity issue?

Water-from-air Resource (WFAR) Resource Charts are available for three sites in Egypt. These sites represent one climate zone. Operating conditions by month for atmospheric water generators range from unreliable to excellent depending on site latitude, elevation, distance inland from the Mediterranean Sea, and season. Please see the charts for details.

The table below ranks the sites from highest to lowest WFAR Annual Index. The coastal site of Alexandria is suitable for year-round effective operation of water-from-air systems even though the water-from-air resource grade ranges from poor to excellent. In contrast, Cairo and Aswan will have periods of unreliable operation during the low sun season. Hourly water production analyses would be useful for better understanding the feasibility of water-from-air system operation at these sites.

Kuwait location mapKuwait location map (click to enlarge)
Important environmental issues in Kuwait are water scarcity, groundwater salinity, land degradation, desertification, pollution, and impacts of the Gulf War (UNEP, 2013, Arab Region Atlas of Our Changing Environment). Can water-from-air technology address the water scarcity issue?

A Water-from-air Resource (WFAR) Resource Chart is available for Kuwait City. This site (54 m elevation) is in the arid | desert | hot arid climate zone. Operating conditions by month for atmospheric water generators range from unreliable to fair.

Please see the chart for details. An hourly water production analysis would be useful for better understanding the feasibility of water-from-air system operation in Kuwait City (Water-from-Air Resource Annual Index = 0.45).

Important environmental issues in Algeria are desertification, water scarcity, and pollution (UNEP, 2013, Arab Region Atlas of Our Changing Environment, page xiv). Can water-from-air technology address the water scarcity issue?

Water-from-air Resource (WFAR) Resource Charts are available for four sites in Algeria. These sites represent three climate zones. Operating conditions by month for atmospheric water generators range from unreliable to good depending on site latitude, elevation, distance inland from the Mediterranean Sea, and season. Please see the charts for details.

The table below ranks the sites from highest to lowest WFAR Annual Index. The coastal site of Algiers is suitable for year-round effective operation of water-from-air systems even though the water-from-air resource grade ranges from poor to good. In contrast, Batna, Biskra, and I-n-Salah will have periods of unreliable operation during the low sun season. Hourly water production analyses would be useful for better understanding the feasibility of water-from-air system operation at these sites.

    I have been researching and developing drinking-water-from-air technologies since 1984. As a physical geographer, I strive to contribute an accurate, scientific point-of-view to the field.
