Abstract

There is a saying ,” water has only two aspects ; when mixed with anything it’s NEED, and when not it’s LIFE”. Sometimes the terrible water scarcity in tropical countries like Bangladesh reminds us this quote immensely .Despite the fact that water covers more than two third(around 70%)of the Earth’s surface yet at the same time fresh water which can be utilized for drinking and doing regular errands stays rare .Drinking water accessibility is a note worthy issue in some country region in Bangladesh during the summer because of absence of precipitation . For that reason, people need to go a couple of kilometers far from home to get the water . This project aims to solve this problem . In the coastal areas of Bangladesh the percentage of relative humidity is quite high . Along these regions , the humid air can be utilized to meet the water needs of individual by utilizing a dehumidifier unit The Atmospheric Water Generator is one of the option answer for new water recuperation from environment which is straight forwardly consolidated the dampness substance of water vapor from the air . This paper introduces the strategy to build up a model of an AWG in light of Thermo-electric cooler(TEC) that utilized 12volt DC, consequently its apporpriates for utilizing sustainable power sources asset.
