Water UN Limited was incorporated to acquire the technology and intellectual property associated with water from ambient air technology, also known as ‘the Max Water', from world renowned Perth based inventor Dr Max Whisson.
This breakthrough technology has the potential to produce water from air using a turbine containing refrigerants. If successful, this technology will be capable of supplying commercial quantities of water for a wide variety of uses powered by wind energy alone.
If successful the technology developed by Dr Max Whisson may represent the most important breakthrough in water production in recent years. The commercialisation of Max Water may be by license, direct sales, distributor networks or a combination of these. Under any marketing strategy a percentage of units produced will be donated via appropriate charitable organizations to supply water to areas of extreme poverty in developing economies.
Our company mission is to now build the first complete prototype and hopefully prove the concept.
Windmills of Your Mind
"Doctor and inventor Max Whisson has always taken a different view of life from most people.
Where the majority would see a glass of water on a table, he would see 'a mathematical calculation for a vessel that holds liquid'.
He believes he can solve the current water crisis with his Water Windmill invention, a unique technology to extract moisture from the atmosphere - partly inspired by a little beetle called Stenocara.
The energetic septuagenarian’s mind is always in overdrive, pursuing a multitude of interests from music to politics and biology and coming up with weird and wonderful ideas to make the world a better place.
At the height of the AIDs epidemic in the 80s, he invented a retractable hypodermic needle.
And he’s gathering enthusiasm for his water windmills from all corners of the globe.
