2024 Will go down in history as one of the hottest years…
As temperatures kept soaring, Indian cities started to go dry. But Uravu Labs in Bengaluru continues to bottle nearly 4000 litres of water every single day without tapping into groundwater, a lake or a river. They convert air into drinking water. Watch the video to find out how this magic happens.

  • People don't have time to watch such incredible innovations for the betterment of mankind... Kudos to the team...
  • Not every customer will be happy to pay Rs 100 to 200 for a bottle of water. But still great innovation, the rich should atleast promote its usage.
  • @user-wz8xq6xy2i
    Great idea 1. Every house needs to start production 2. Supply to neighbors 3. Will help reduce humidity 4. Where can wet get the contact info of those who created this? - I’ve seen these elsewhere and it’s important to do this across the entire country. 5. 4000 liters is enough water for the whole house.
  • This is clickbait. What they are doing is small scale and niche, no way this will "solve the drinking water crisis".
  • Dehumidifier with water purification, definitely a good option for areas with humidity but where there's no or very less humidity it won't work.

    Great to see these youngsters are trying to solve an issue that is haunting people around the world. Water problem is increasing day by day and solutions like this may help to address it.

    I had dropped this idea in 2010 as it has the potential to irreversibly damage the atmosphere & hence the ecosystem that is depended on it. Be aware of the long term consequences to the environment... sometimes, we need to let go of certain innovations for the sake of our future generations.
  • Nothing against the innovation but, Please use rainwater harvesting and not this , If enough people use this this will lead to dry air in Bengaluru and changes in the pressure conditions and other bad consequences
  • 3:19 guys pls work on the rust problem. This is unbelievable. Such a simple problem to fix too.
  • @wg8349
    It's good to have backup plans for everything.
  • I somewhat agree with people concerned about humidity levels. For this process to be sustainable, the production unit must only be operational during monsoon and located somewhere with extremely high humidity like in tropical coastal regions of southwest India or Eastern regions like West Bengal or Chirapunji. Bengaluru is actually one place where the humidity level is perfect to form one of the most comfortable microclimates in India. If you keep dehumidifying their air for year round production, the immediate surroundings will become unbearbly dry in summer.
  • people like you give the future a chance. if you can solve the water problem.. you deserve all the respect and lots and lots of money. i wish you success.
  • Great work........... nowadays solar power is also using this humidity.......
  • @jithenin
    Thank you for the Information 👍

    4000 litters used extremely conservatively can handle the needs of maybe 200 people. This is still quite early days but I am hopeful for this intiative
