Open source water generation
Open-source atmospheric water generator – first lab reports launched on April 5, 2016 with 62 votes, #1,073 of 4,301 launches that month and more than 90% of that year's launches. The site was still online in September 2026, 10 years on.
In plain words
This open-source atmospheric water generator extracts water from the air using reverse osmosis filtration. Initial laboratory testing shows the generated water meets standards for pH, turbidity, metal content, minerals, and bacterial contamination, though additional testing is planned. The project documents the water generation and filtration process, making the technology available to developers and researchers interested in atmospheric water extraction systems.

From the sources
TL;DR: The water generated from our atmospheric water generator was sent to an EPA-certified laboratory for testing. It was tested for pH (acidity/alkalinity), turbidity (cloudiness), metal content, mineral content, and bacterial contamination. So far, it looks good, but we need to run more tests! We generated water from the atmosphere and flushed the filtration system with the generated water for an hour. Next, we shut off the effluent spigot and allowed the reverse osmosis filtered water to collect in the pressurized collection tank, a component provided by the filtration system. Samples were collected to test for pH, turbidity, metals, minerals, and bacteria. Once collected, the samples…from openawg.github.io

Talanoa▲346Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…
