Abstract
An atmospheric water generator (AWG) may be used to extract water from ambient air. A compact screw compressor of the AWG may be used to compress refrigerant, a condenser of the AWG may be used to condense refrigerant, an expansion device, and an evaporator of the AWG may be used to transfer heat from ambient air to refrigerant, causing moisture in the air to condense. The condensed moisture may be collected in a water collection unit.
