Chilean Startup Creates A System That Can Generate Ten Thousand Liters Of Water Per Month From Air And Solar Energy

The Chilean startup that created the system for solar energy focuses on the installation and development of renewable energies, operating in five countries in the region. In 2019, they took a new step and developed a new water source addressing water scarcity. In 2016, brothers Andrés and Horacio Vásquez, along with Catalina Kissling, founded the startup Lader Energy with the goal of combating climate change.

After searching for various ways to produce water with no water or carbon footprint, the Chilean startup created a system in the United States. This year, with an investment of US$ 250 thousand, they developed their own technology “AWA” and built an aerial water station in San Fernando, in the O’Higgins region.

Andrés Vásquez, Business Director of Lader Energy, states that the plant has 62 hydropanels that combine photovoltaic solar energy with thermal solar energy. Some fans absorb moisture from the air, the water particles in the humidity condense and thus potable water is generated. It is then mineralized with calcium and magnesium and goes through UV filtration and activated carbon processes.

Other Goals Of The Chilean Startup

The creators of the system that uses solar energy to generate water intend to sell water directly to communities. The project has already been presented to most authorities, General Water Directorate (DGA), Seremi de Salud, and municipalities, and the company is in negotiations, according to Horacio Vásquez, CEO of the startup.

In parallel, they have already communicated with local merchants, supermarkets, and companies that intend to join the system. The CEO hints that there are plans to open new factories in the north and south. Meanwhile, in Colombia, they are already starting everything to enter later this year, near Medellin.

A village with 115 inhabitants wants new residents: it offers a house, a job, up to 44 thousand euros in benefits, almost free rent, an annual grant of 8 thousand euros for 3 years, and a 20 thousand euro incentive for businesses in the mountains of Italy.

NASA is offering US$ 750,000 to people from anywhere in the world who solve a problem that could decide survival on Mars: creating food for astronauts without relying on resupply from Earth.

New microwave that can replace three appliances hits the market: Sharp launches 3-in-1 model that combines air fryer, convection oven, and heating in 0.9 cubic feet for small kitchens

While Brazil has been discussing bullet trains for 16 years, China delivers 5 new high-speed lines in 2026, surpasses 50,000 km of HSR, and moves 1 billion passengers in a single year.

Elon Musk’s internet comes to mobile: Starlink technology connects smartphones without an antenna via satellite, works even without carrier signal, already costs just US$10 extra in the US, and could arrive in Brazil as an included benefit.

With an 88-meter wingspan, a capacity of 250 tons, six engines, and 32 wheels, the Ukrainian giant became the greatest symbol of extreme air transport and one of the most impressive machines in aviation history.

The United Kingdom removed approximately 1.8 million cubic meters of sand from the seabed and is depositing it all on 6 kilometers of beaches in Norfolk, in a mega-operation to curb erosion, protect coastal villages, and shield a vital gas terminal against the encroaching Atlantic.

Pulp megafactory enters its heavy phase: 14,000 workers will be mobilized in the coming months in the small Brazilian town

With more than 4,000 cattle slaughtered per day, a great impact on agribusiness, and mass job creation, this is the largest meatpacking plant in Brazil and reinforces the country’s weight in the global meat market.

Truckers are now using an illegal trick to bypass toll collection with a device developed for drivers to evade monitoring.

Scientists analyzed air bubbles trapped in 3-million-year-old Antarctic ice and discovered that the planet cooled dramatically while greenhouse gases remained almost stable.

China innovates and now uses bubbles in construction works to prevent dust and noise pollution, with structures up to 50 meters and 20,000 m² that reduce impacts by up to 90% and operate with sensors and advanced ventilation.
