2. Atmospheric water generator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Atmospheric_water_generator

   State-of-the-art AWG for home use. An atmospheric water generator (AWG), is a device that extracts water from humid ambient air, producing potable water. Water vapor in the air can be extracted either by condensation - cooling the air below its dew point, exposing the air to desiccants, using membranes that only pass water vapor, collecting fog, [1] or pressurizing the air.

3. Air purifier - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Air_purifier

   An air purifier or air cleaner is a device which removes contaminants from the air in a room to improve indoor air quality. These devices are commonly marketed as being beneficial to allergy sufferers and asthmatics , and at reducing or eliminating second-hand tobacco smoke .

4. Solar water disinfection - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Solar_water_disinfection

   Solar water disinfection, in short SODIS, is a type of portable water purification that uses solar energy to make biologically-contaminated (e.g. bacteria, viruses, protozoa and worms) water safe to drink. Water contaminated with non-biological agents such as toxic chemicals or heavy metals require additional steps to make the water safe to drink.

5. Slingshot (water vapor distillation system) - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Slingshot_(water_vapor...

   Slingshot is a water purification device created by inventor Dean Kamen. [1] Powered by a Stirling engine running on a combustible fuel source, it claims to be able to produce drinking water from almost any source [2] by means of vapor compression distillation, [3] requires no filters, and can operate using cow dung as fuel.

6. Portable water purification - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Portable_water_purification

   Instead of using the static pressure of a water supply line to force the water through the filter, pressure is provided by a hand-operated pump. These devices can generate drinkable water from seawater. The Portable Aqua Unit for Lifesaving (short PAUL) is a portable ultrafiltration-based membrane water filter for humanitarian aid. It allows ...

7. Powered air-purifying respirator - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Powered_air-purifying...

   A powered air-purifying respirator (PAPR) is a type of respirator used to safeguard workers against contaminated air. PAPRs consist of a headgear-and-fan assembly that takes ambient air contaminated with one or more type of pollutant or pathogen , actively removes (filters) a sufficient proportion of these hazards, and then delivers the clean ...

8. Biofilter - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Biofilter

   The air is normally humidified before it enters the bed with a watering (spray) system, humidification chamber, bio scrubber, or bio trickling filter. Properly maintained, a natural, organic packing media like peat, vegetable mulch, bark or wood chips may last for several years but engineered, combined natural organic, and synthetic component ...

9. IQAir - Wikipedia

   en.wikipedia.org/wiki/IQAir

   IQAir was founded in 1963 by brothers Manfred and Klaus Hammes, who introduced an air filter system for residential coal ovens in Germany to help reduce black dust build-up on the walls behind ovens. [5]
