In Gaza, access to safe drinking water is very limited. After Hamas took control of the Gaza Strip in 2007, its 2 million residents were blocked by Israel and Egypt. The blockade and ongoing conflict have led to power outages and deterioration of infrastructure.
The region relies on coastal aquifers as the main source of drinking water, but due to over-exploitation, water volume and quality are rapidly deteriorating. In February last year, the World Bank announced the provision of financial support for the Gaza Central Desalination Program to provide water security in the region. Residents obtain water from expensive and unregulated private suppliers-produced by small desalination plants. But UNICEF warned that two-thirds of it had been contaminated when it was delivered, according to the Times.
Israeli billionaire Michael Mirilashvili has a solution to the water crisis in the Gaza Strip. His company makes generators that produce drinking water, and extracts water from the air to convert it into drinking water, just like a dehumidifier. One of them has been donated to Al-Rantisi Medical Center in Gaza City. This device is a medium-sized model the size of a vending machine, and it produces about 800 liters of clean water per day for pediatric cancer wards. Although the installed equipment runs on electricity, it will be connected to solar panels in the future.
The company was originally developed for military use, and when the company was acquired in 2017, the company's technology entered the civilian market. The largest generator can produce water for thousands of people, and there is also a domestic version.
Mr. Mirilashvili said that he hopes to provide Large Industrial Air Water Generator to meet Gaza's drinking water needs. They may cost tens of thousands of dollars, but the company is willing to sell them at discounted prices. The Residential Air water generator is used in more than 60 countries, including developing countries without water infrastructure such as India, and drought-stricken areas such as California.
