A campus that makes its own water

Reichman University in Herzliya became the first academic institution worldwide to deploy Watergen's water-from-air technology across its campus — drinking water for thousands of students, faculty and visitors, generated directly from the air.

01 · The Challenge

A campus. Thousands of people. A lot of water

A large university campus serving thousands of students, faculty and visitors needs drinking water available wherever people live, study and gather.

With three dormitory buildings among the campus facilities, the solution needed to extend beyond a single point of consumption.

02 · The Solution

Drinking water, generated on campus

Watergen systems were deployed across four campus buildings, including three student residences, bringing drinking-water generation directly to the places where students live and study.

On-site water generation. No water-pipeline connection required. No bottled-water delivery.

03 · The Impact

Thousands of people, off bottled water

The deployment enables thousands of students and campus visitors to access locally generated drinking water while helping reduce the environmental impact associated with bottled water and high-carbon supply chains.

Reichman University will be the first that will be able to stop using plastic products thanks to our technology.
