The simple law of condensation has allowed a Canadian company, Element Four to develop a gadget that produces water out of thin air. The gadget uses a technology, which is similar to that of a de-humidifier. The Water Mill aims to help millions of people who currently face a severe shortage in water. Producing about 12 liters of water in a day, the Water Mill is green and eco-friendly too.

The device consumes power equivalent to that of 3 bulbs and is a better alternative to existing water distribution systems. Analysts estimate that it may cost around 20 pence produce a liter of water. The device itself is estimated to cost 300 Pounds and would measure 3ft wide. Looks like we shall finally have a solution to the ever-present problem of water shortage.

This would not only help developed countries to have an alternative to bottled water but even developing countries can make use of the gadget, where people suffer from draughts and where people lack clean drinking water. Inventor Jonathan Ritchey definitely needs to be applauded and congratulated for such a great invention.
