TYPICAL IRRIGATION SOURCES

Rainfall (Reduction of Rainfall)

Based on lack of rain falls in the State of Qatar, it becomes very difficult to plant the lands and to make it fertile

for plantation; this is caused by the GHG emissions to the atmosphere, as it is one of the main reasons of

desertification in most of countries around the world, especially in the Arabian Gulf Countries.

Groundwater

The lack of rain in the State of Qatar negatively affects the underground national water reserve and makes it

unsuitable for portable drinking and land plantations; which makes the farmers and farms owners to depend on

water purification and water sweetening plants which are costly and somehow are not environment friendly.

Revers

The non-availability of the revers in the State of Qatar and the neighboring countries, it makes it more difficult to

get pure water.

TYPICAL IRRIGATIONCONCERNS

• Reduction in the pure groundwater and increase in non-pure groundwater & soil salinity as a result of brine and

chemicals produced from certain farm processes discharged back into the underground.

• Recycled water, or treated sewage effluent is the main source of water used for irrigation.

• Lacks the proper/ Suitable infrastructure to deliver recycled water.

• Rising groundwater level as a result of leakage from clean water and sewage water networks.

• Consumption through2020 is expected to increase 7% a year. (Source: National Development Strategy 2011 –

2016)

WATER IN STATE OF QATAR

(Present and Prospective)

The water consumption in 2009 has increased by (7%) compared with the year 2008 in

the summer, according to the report of the third quarter of 2010 of the State of Qatar,

issued by International Business Monitor (BMI).

The studies of the Economic and Social Commission for Western Asia (ESCWA) have

shown that the need of water for the State of Qatar in 2025 will reach almost (485)

million cubic meters.

ESCWA also expects that the increased requirement for water is expected for 2025 due

mainly to the consumption of the agricultural sector and domestic uses.

The use of desalinated water has tripled since 1995, reaching 312 million cubic meters in

2008.

AGRI – GREEN

MAIN INVENTION OBJECTIVE

⁂To provide and secure alternative & creative

sources of water From Nature.

⁂Participating & supporting food security program.

AGRI – GREEN INVENTION TECHNOLOGY

To produce water by condensing humidity

suspended in the air, and to use the produced

water mainly for Agricultural needs and Industrial

applications.

The power used in the invention utilizes natural

resources ( wind and solar energy ).

AGRI – GREEN INVENTION AIM & MISSION

• Creating and developing new ways and means to innovate irrigation to

improve and develop the agricultural sector, taking the advantages of the

high percentage of moisture in the air in most of the Gulf States and other

Countries. To give the opportunity to rebuild and restructure the farms of

sheep, cows and the related industry of dairy derivatives in the State of

Qatar.

• Contribute in reducing dependence on foreign imports of agricultural

products and food and help to achieve self-sufficiency in the country.

• Support State local production, through the export surplus of such

products to neighboring countries.

AGRI – GREEN INVENTION AIM & MISSION

• Creating new and sustainable jobs opportunities through the new and replenishment of

agricultural and industrial activities as mentioned above.

• Reduce air pollution, and contribute to save marine life by reducing the use of fossil fuels

and desalination plants through the use of renewable energy sources.

• Apportioning the State of Qatar to take its role and its place in the ranks of countries

using the natural energy sources as an alternative.

• Placing the State of Qatar among the countries which contribute for the protection of the

environment by reducing carbon dioxide emissions to the atmosphere.

• To be environment friendly by reducing the Green House Gases emissions and protecting

the planet from the climate change negative impacts.

AGRI – GREEN INVENTION STRATEGIC BENEFITS

• Placing the State of Qatar among the countries that promotes &

utilizes natural/ renewable energy sources.

• One of the Sustainable Development Projects.

• It can be a large scale (CDM) Clean Development Mechanism

Project with (UNFCCC) United Nation Convention of Climate Change

• Contribute financially to support the country's infrastructure and

Sustainable Developments.

• An Environment friendly device designed to produce water from the

moisture suspended in the air.

AGRI – GREEN INVENTION TECHNICAL COMBONENTS

The device consists of;

(1) Steel Structure. (2) Coolers. (3)Compressors. (4)

Condensers. (5)Fans. (6)Air filters. (7) Water Tanks. (8)

Windmills. (9) Solar Panels. (10) Batteries. (11) Power

Distribution Board. (12) DC/AC Inverters & Regulators.

AGRI – GREEN TECHNICAL DESCRIPTION

• A thermal insulation is provided inside the device to resist the

external temperature and to maintain the entire project

effectiveness and efficiency.

• Water production varies depending on the size of the device on

hand, and humidity percentage and temperature of the

atmosphere on the other hand.

• The device is safe and secure to use.

AGRI – GREEN DEVICE OPERATION

• Main compressor starts till the condensers temperature falls to the

required level.

• Cooling gas is circulated in first main condenser to reach 20°C

temperature.

• Cooling gas is then circulated in 2nd main condenser until the temperature

reaches 15°C.

• Main fans are switched on to suck wet air through the condensers.

• Primary compressor cools the primary condensers to lower the air

temperature. (During hot out-side air temperature).

AGRI – GREEN WATER GENERATION PROCESS

• Fans are used to suck the air through all filters and condensers;

whereas the same air is utilized to cool both compressors and to

run windmills.

• Condensers are condensing most of the humidity suspended in

the air to produce water.

• Air passed through the condensers turns into water drops and

be collected into provided tanks.
