I said it was for remote areas, and produced 10l/hr. Beyond that, the
only information I had was what was on the ABC New Inventors website,
and the video for that episode is no longer online, and the inventor's
website, which is currently not very informative, although it was a
lot more so before. Maybe archive.org will help.
Anyway, a small self-contained unit (that was small enough to mount on
a truck) that'll produce 10l/hr.
No, condensation is not going to assist big cities. I apologise, but
to me, desert means "not many people live there". I keep forgetting
that you yanks build big cities in the middle of them and your
response to "this'll provide water in the desert" is "great - we can
play golf now" rather than "great, we're not going to die out here...".
Different viewpoints entirely.
