He kuʻikahi ia na ka diabolo: ʻO nā kukuna ʻālohilohi o ka lā i kēia manawa o ka makahiki e hele pū me ka haʻahaʻa kino.Akā, pehea inā hiki i kēlā haʻahaʻa ke lilo i mea waiwai no kā mākou pono wai i kēia manawa a me ka wā e hiki mai ana ma South Florida a ma waho?Pehea inā hiki ke hana ʻia ka wai maʻemaʻe… mai loko mai o ka ea mānoanoa?
Ua puka mai kahi ʻoihana niche i nā makahiki i hala iho nei e hana i kēia wale nō, a ʻo kahi hui Cooper City liʻiliʻi, me ka loaʻa ʻana o nā haʻahaʻa haʻahaʻa a pau a lākou e makemake ai, he mea pāʻani nui.
ʻO Atmospheric Water Solutions a i ʻole AWS, e noho ana i kahi paka keʻena ʻoi loa, akā mai ka makahiki 2012 ua hana lākou i kahi huahana kupaianaha loa.Kapa lākou i ka AquaBoy Pro.I kēia manawa i kāna hanauna ʻelua (ʻo ka AquaBoy Pro II), ʻo ia kekahi o nā mea hoʻoheheʻe wai ea i loaʻa i ka mea kūʻai aku i kēlā me kēia lā ma ka mākeke ma nā wahi e like me Target a Home Depot.
Me he mea lā mai loko mai o kahi kiʻiʻoniʻoni sci-fi.Akā ʻo Reid Goldstein, ka hope pelekikena hoʻokō o AWS nāna i lawe i ka makahiki 2015, ʻōlelo ka ʻenehana kumu i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i nā ea a me nā dehumidifiers."ʻO ia ka ʻenehana dehumidification me ka ʻepekema hou i hoʻolei ʻia i loko."
Ua like ke ʻano o waho o ka hāmeʻa me kahi mea hoʻoluʻu wai me ka ʻole o ka mea ʻoluʻolu a ʻoi aku ke kumukūʻai o $1,665.
He hana ia ma ke huki ʻana i ka ea mai waho.Ma nā wahi me ka haʻahaʻa kiʻekiʻe, lawe mai kēlā ea i ka mahu wai me ia.Hoʻopili ʻia ka mahu mehana me nā ʻili kila kuhili ʻana i hoʻoluʻu ʻia i loko, a, e like me kēlā wai kūpono ʻole e kulu ana mai kāu ea ea, hana ʻia ka condensation.ʻOhi ʻia ka wai a hoʻokele ʻia ma nā ʻāpana ʻehiku o ka kānana kiʻekiʻe a hiki i ka puka ʻana mai o ka paipa i ka wai inu maʻemaʻe i hōʻoia ʻia e EPA.
E like me kēlā mea hoʻoluʻu wai ma ka hana, hiki i ka mana o ka hale o ka mea hana ke hana ma kahi o ʻelima mau galani wai inu i ka lā.
ʻO ka nui e pili ana i ka haʻahaʻa o ka lewa, a me kahi e loaʻa ai ka mea hana.E hoʻokomo i loko o kou hale kaʻa a i ʻole ma kahi o waho a e loaʻa hou iā ʻoe.E hoʻopaʻa i loko o kāu lumi kuke me ka hele ʻana o ka ea a e emi iki.Wahi a Goldstein, pono ka hāmeʻa ma nā wahi a pau mai ka 28% a i ka 95% humidity, a me nā mahana ma waena o 55 degere a me 110 degere e hana.
Ma kahi o ʻekolu hapaha o nā ʻāpana 1,000 i kūʻai ʻia a hiki i kēia manawa ua hele i nā hale a me nā keʻena ma ʻaneʻi a i ʻole ma nā wahi haʻahaʻa like ʻole a puni ka ʻāina, a me nā wahi honua i ʻike ʻia no ko lākou ea ʻeha e like me Qatar, Puerto Rico, Honduras a me nā Bahamas.
ʻO ka ʻāpana ʻē aʻe o ke kūʻai ʻana mai nā mea ʻoi aku ka nui a ka hui e hoʻomau nei i ka hana, hiki ke hana ma nā wahi āpau mai 30 a 3,000 mau galani wai maʻemaʻe i ka lā a loaʻa iā ia ka hiki ke lawelawe i nā pono o ka honua.
He luna papahana honua ʻo Juan Sebastian Chaquea ma AWS.ʻO kāna poʻo inoa mua ʻo ia ka luna papahana ma FEMA, kahi āna i hana ai i ka hoʻokele ʻana i nā hale, nā hale noho a me nā hale hoʻololi i ka wā o nā pōʻino."Ma ka hoʻokele pilikia, ʻo nā mea mua āu e uhi ai ʻo ka meaʻai, ka hale a me ka wai.Akā ʻaʻole pono kēlā mau mea a pau inā ʻaʻole wai ʻoe, "wahi āna.
Ua aʻo aku ʻo Chaquea iā ia e pili ana i nā pilikia logistical o ka lawe ʻana i ka wai ʻōmole.He kaumaha, he kumu kūʻai ka moku.Pono nō hoʻi nā kino e neʻe a lawe aku i kona hiki ʻana i kahi wahi pōʻino, kahi e waiho ai i nā poʻe ma nā wahi paʻakikī ʻole ke komo ʻana i nā lā.Hiki ke hoʻohaumia ke waiho ʻia i ka lā no ka lōʻihi loa.
Ua komo ʻo Chaquea i ka AWS i kēia makahiki no ka mea, manaʻoʻiʻo ʻo ia e hiki i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka ʻenehana mīkini hana wai lewa ke kōkua i ka hoʻoponopono ʻana i kēlā mau pilikia - a i ka hopena e hoʻopakele i nā ola."ʻO ka hiki ke lawe i ka wai i ka poʻe e hiki ai iā lākou ke loaʻa ka helu hoʻokahi e pono ai lākou e ola," wahi āna.
ʻAʻole i lohe ʻo Randy Smith, ka mea haʻiʻōlelo no ka South Florida Water Management District, i ka huahana a i ʻole ka ʻenehana.
Akā ua ʻōlelo ʻo ia ua kākoʻo mau ka SFWD i nā kamaʻāina e ʻimi i "nā lako wai ʻē aʻe."Wahi a ke keʻena, ʻo ka wai lepo, ka mea maʻamau mai ka wai i loaʻa i nā māwae a me nā ākea i ka lepo, ke one a me ka pōhaku, ʻo ia ka 90 pakeneka o ka wai o South Florida i hoʻohana ʻia i nā hale a me nā ʻoihana.
Hana ʻia e like me kahi waihona kālā.Wehe mākou mai ia mea a hoʻopiha hou ʻia e ka ua.A ʻoiai ua nui ka ua ma South Florida, hiki i nā wā maloʻo a me nā wai lepo i haumia a hiki ʻole ke hoʻohana ʻia i ka wā o nā waikahe a me nā ʻino.
No ka laʻana, inā ʻaʻole lawa ka ua i ke kau maloʻo, hopohopo pinepine nā luna no ka lawa ʻana o ka ua i ka wā wai e kaulike ai i kā mākou mau moʻokāki.Loaʻa pinepine, ʻoiai nā nail-biters e like me ka makahiki 2017.
Akā, ua hoʻopilikia ka maloʻo piha i ka ʻāina, e like me ka mea i 1981 i koi ai iā Gov. Bob Graham e haʻi aku i South Florida he wahi pōʻino.
ʻOiai ʻo ka maloʻo a me nā ʻino ka mea hiki ke hiki, ʻo ka piʻi ʻana o ka koi no ka wai lepo i nā makahiki e hiki mai ana.
Ma ka 2025, 6 miliona mau kānaka hou e manaʻo ʻia e hoʻolilo iā Florida i ko lākou home a ʻoi aku ma mua o ka hapalua e noho ma South Florida, e like me ka SFWD.E hoʻonui kēia i ka noi no ka wai hou ma 22 pakeneka.Ua ʻōlelo ʻo Smith he "koʻikoʻi" kekahi ʻenehana e kōkua i ka mālama ʻana i ka wai.
Manaʻo ʻo AWS i nā huahana e like me kā lākou, ka mea e koi ai i ka wai ʻole o ka honua e hana, kūpono loa e hōʻemi i nā pono o kēlā me kēia lā, e like me ka wai inu a i ʻole ka hoʻopiha ʻana i kāu mīkini kope.
Eia nō naʻe, ʻike ko lākou mau alakaʻi i ka hoʻonui ʻana i ka ʻoihana no nā pono e like me ka ulu ʻana i ka mahiʻai, ka lawelawe ʻana i nā mīkini dialysis kidney, a me ka hāʻawi ʻana i ka wai inu i nā halemai - kekahi o lākou i hana mua.Ke hoʻomohala nei lākou i kahi hui kelepona hiki ke hana i 1,500 mau galani wai i ka lā, a lākou e ʻōlelo nei e hiki ke lawelawe i nā kahua kūkulu, kōkua pilikia a me nā wahi mamao.
"ʻOiai ua ʻike nā kānaka a pau he pono ʻoe i ka wai e ola ai, ʻoi aku ka laulā a ʻoi aku ka nui o ka waiwai i hoʻohana ʻia ma mua o ka mea i kūpono i ka maka," wahi a Goldstein.
He mea hoʻohauʻoli kēia ʻike i nā poʻe ʻē aʻe e pili ana i ka lewa, e like me Sameer Rao, he kaukaʻi kōkua o ka ʻenekinia mechanical ma ke Kulanui o Utah.
I ka makahiki 2017, ʻo Rao kahi palapala kākau ma MIT.Ua paʻi ʻo ia i kahi pepa me nā hoa hana e ʻōlelo ana e hiki iā lākou ke hana i kahi mea hoʻoheheʻe wai lewa e hiki ke hoʻohana ʻia ma nā wahi āpau, me ka nānā ʻole i ka pae haʻahaʻa.
A, ʻaʻole like me ka AquaBoy, ʻaʻole ia e koi i ka uila a i ʻole nā ʻāpana neʻe paʻakikī - ʻo ka lā wale nō.Ua hoʻokumu ka pepa i ka puʻupuʻu i loko o ke kaiāulu ʻepekema ʻoiai ua ʻike ʻia ka manaʻo ma ke ʻano he mea hiki ke hoʻoponopono i nā pilikia wai nui e pili ana i nā ʻāina maloʻo a puni ka honua i manaʻo ʻia e lilo i mea ʻino i ka wā e hoʻomau ana ka wela o ka ea a hoʻomau ka ulu ʻana o ka lehulehu.
I ka makahiki 2018, huli hou ʻo Rao a me kāna hui i ka wā i hana ai lākou i kahi prototype no kā lākou manaʻo i hiki ke hana i ka wai mai kahi hale ma Tempe, Arizona, me ka kokoke i ka haʻahaʻa ʻole.
Wahi a ka noiʻi a Rao, aia he mau trillion lita o ka wai ma ke ʻano o ka mahu ma ka lewa.Eia nō naʻe, ʻaʻole hiki ke lawelawe i nā ʻano hana o kēia manawa no ka unuhi ʻana i kēlā wai, e like me ka ʻenehana AWS, i nā ʻāina maloʻo e pono pinepine iā lākou.
ʻAʻole hāʻawi ʻia kēlā mau wahi ma nā wahi haʻahaʻa, no ka mea, pono nā huahana e like me ka AquaBoy Pro II i ka ikehu e hoʻohana ai - kahi mea e manaʻo ai ka hui e emi iho ke hoʻomau lākou i ka hoʻomaʻemaʻe ʻana i kā lākou ʻenehana a ʻimi i nā kumu ikehu ʻē aʻe.
Akā hauʻoli ʻo Rao i ka loaʻa ʻana o nā huahana e like me ka AquaBoy ma ka mākeke.Ua ʻike ʻo ia ʻo AWS kekahi o nā ʻoihana liʻiliʻi a puni ka ʻāina e hana nei me kēia "ʻenehana hou," a hoʻokipa ʻo ia i nā mea hou aku."He nui nā kulanui i ka hoʻomohala ʻana i ka ʻenehana, akā pono mākou i nā hui e ʻike a hana i nā huahana," wahi a Rao.
E pili ana i ke kumukūʻai, ʻōlelo ʻo Rao e manaʻo mākou e iho i lalo no ka mea ʻoi aku ka ʻike e pili ana i ka ʻenehana a, ʻo ka hope, koi.Hoʻohālike ʻo ia me kekahi ʻenehana hou i hopu i nā poʻe ʻē aʻe ma ka moʻolelo."Inā hiki iā mākou ke hana i kahi ea ea i ke kumu kūʻai haʻahaʻa, hiki ke iho i ke kumukūʻai o kēia ʻenehana," wahi āna.
