The WaterProducer-Greenhouse™ is a Canadian water-from-air technology for
improving water and food security for people on tropical small islands.
• Its relatively cool interior allows temperate zone crops at sea-level in tropical regions. • The greenhouse produces its own fresh water, by dehumidifying the ambient outdoor air, for crop irrigation and extra fresh water for a variety of uses by the local population. |  WaterProducer-Greenhouse™ concept.
