Abstract

With the growing population worldwide, the demand for fresh water is expected to continuously increase over the year, putting an unnecessary pressure on the surface and groundwater. Atmospheric water harvesting which is an air to water system therefore presents a suitable alternative that does not depend on the limited surface water resource and does not require intensive treatment and production of waste by-product. This new technology is now well understood and adopted by various countries around the world and mainly the middle East and Africa for industrial, commercial and residential dispensation needs. The market of atmospheric water generator and related products is booming and research have been carried out to provide both qualitative and quantitative insights with regard to segment, sub-segment and region across the world. An overview about the market drivers and restrains, as well as the share across different sectors will be part of the focus of this chapter.
