Third International Atmospheric Water Harvesting Summit

The Global Center for Water Technology invites you to join us for our Third International Atmospheric Water Harvesting Summit! This event is hosted in collaboration with the NSF Futures Engine in the Southwest and Julie Ann Wrigley Global Futures Laboratory, Arizona Water Innovation Initiative.

Atmospheric water extraction or harvesting (AWH) is emerging as a potential solution to global water challenges, spanning from humanitarian and domestic drinking water needs to military operations or industrial water usage. Various industries, including beverage, health care, semiconductor and data centers, are investing in research, pilot tests and the integration of AWH into their water portfolio to achieve net-zero water footprints. Breakthroughs in material science, thermodynamics and integrated process engineering are advancing AWH as an economical solution to be a new water source for these applications. The water quality produced by AWH is emerging as a new research area requiring attention.

The Third International Atmospheric Water Harvesting Summit was created to explore new technical or systems solutions, review progress of pilot-testing, understand how policy and regulatory barriers are being removed, and assess progress along an AWH roadmap. This year's summit, titled “Beachhead AWH Materials and Applications,” will feature sessions about the following:

• Water production rates and energy efficiency – from lab, pilot, full-scale approaches
• Thermodynamics and waste heat
• Process Engineering and reactor designs
• Microclimate, air quality, and geospatial considerations
• Applications: From Humanitarian and Agriculture to Data Centers and Dehumidification
• Policy and regulations to support AWH adoption

• AWH Road mapping, LCA, TEA progress
