    Dutch Rainmaker has developed an innovative air-to-water system called the AW75 that uses wind power to produce fresh water from air without needing any existing water sources. The AW75 can produce up to 7,500 liters of water per day and has already been installed with pilot customers in Kuwait and the Netherlands. The system requires little infrastructure and no external power sources, making it well-suited for remote locations that lack access to water.

    Product Sheet Air to water production (AW 75)

    Wind powered water production Revolutionary technology for water production from air Any where 100% sustainable no water needed

    Dutch Rainmaker an environmentally friendly and sustainable solution for a worldwide problem!

    Product Sheet Air to water production (AW 75)


    Dutch Rainmaker is a young technology driven innovative company active in the water sector. Our product features breakthrough technology with highly sustainable features. The concept for freshwater generation has the potential to revolutionize water generation on a global scale. Dutch Rainmaker has developed a truly disruptive technology producing water off -grid, powered solely by renewable energy, with the highest energy efficiency ratings, no discharge and no need to access inflow water.

    This product is applicable in various climates and geographically appropriate for many regions of the world. The Companys first field-proven series (the AW75 turbine) is in operation with pilot customers in Kuwait and the Netherlands. The AW75 turbine can produce up to 7,500 liters of clean water per day. The unique proposition of Dutch Rainmaker is that our products require little to no existing infrastructure, which makes them especially suited for remote locations. Specifically so if these locations lack their own access to water sources. Furthermore, no external power sources are required because of its independent energy generation from the windmills rotors. The systems convert energy from wind into mechanical energy by the use of the rotor. Instead of converting this into electrical energy as commonly is the case, it is converted into thermal energy. The system uses this energy in the form of cooling. Dutch Rainmaker an environmentally friendly and sustainable solution for a worldwide problem!

    The Dutch Rainmaker AW75 concept is a system whereby a stand-alone wind turbine is placed in regions lacking water sources. This system is especially suited for such environments if there is also no access to briny, brackish or polluted water bodies. A Dutch rainmaker system, literally, makes freshwater from air! The systems wind turbine does not drive a generator to produce electricity, as is commonly the case. Instead it drives a heat pump which is directly powered by the wind turbines blades. With the heat pump the water vapour in the air is condensed and collected for domestic or irrigation purposes. Product features aw-type: . Stand-alone system . No need for inflow of water .

    Operating principle Air-to-Water Depending on local ambient temperatures and humidity conditions air naturally contains a certain amount of water. This makes it possible to make water from air almost anywhere in the world. For example, air of 20C and 50% RH (relative humidity) contains approximately 7.5 grams of water per kilogram of air whereas air of 30 C and 50% RH contains almost 14 grams of water per kilogram of air. (1 m of air weighs approx. 1.3 kg). The turbine forces air through a heat exchanger where the air is cooledand condensation takes place. When the temperature falls below its dewpoint water droplets will form. These are then collected in a water storage compartment. Warm ambient air, in particular, can contain large amounts of water. Lowering the temperature of air requires relatively little energy. By doing so large volumes of water become available by condensation and can be used as drinking water or irrigation water.

    Production capacity is determined by a combination of variables. For example air at 30 and 60% Relative Humidity(RH) contains roughly 16 grams of water per kilogram of air. In comparison, air at 35 and 80% RH can contain up to 30.5 grams of water per kilogram of air. The above table shows some examples of combinations of variables and their relative capacity of performance for our windmills. The Mollier diagram on the right is used to determine these values for any combination of variables. The marked points on the diagram coincide with the values in the table. The point on the left marks the conditions to which the system converts the incoming air

    OUR MARKETS Dutch Rainmaker systems are to be installed in areas to relief shortages in water for: Drinking water Agriculture Industrial Tourism & Islands Fire fighting Military

    Either as stand alone systems, expansion in existing grids or as a substitute to less sustainable systems.

    The Dutch Rainmaker systems have a variety of potential applications. It can help rural areas provide the required water for domestic purposes but can also help industrial installations to reduce their environmental impact on local water sources. We intend our product to help solve problems such as in fire fighting, by having water readily available, or for irrigation purposes in the agricultural sector by generating an independent supply. This makes it suitable for many locations that are either off-grid or have poorly maintained infrastructures. Islands, coastal regions, mainland and even rural inland areas could be very well served by our technology and its applications. CONTACT US!
