SFU professor Majid Bahrami has created a machine that turns air into water.

“People are really struggling with water so water has become a major issue,” says Bahrami, who explains the prototype took three years to create after years of research.

Unlike air conditioners, which can also similarly create condensation, he explains this prototype can create water under any weather conditions.

The prototype works by enhancing the humidity in the air, and it can create between 19 to 40 liters a day.

He explains he built it with a goal in mind: to make drinking water more available to those who need it the most.
