WorldWater & Power Corp. (OTCBB:WWAT.OB) will debut their new MobileMaxPure(tm) solar power unit at the 28th Annual National Hurricane Conference to be held in Orlando, Florida, April 10-14.
The MobilMaxPure(tm) critical response unit can be towed into a disaster area by pickup truck or SUV and immediately provide emergency responders and victims with the essential services of power generation, water purification and satellite communications. With the flip of a switch, 15 solar panels automatically unfold to create a 12×18 foot photovoltaic array that generates electricity. A bank of high-capacity batteries power the panel deployment and store electricity for emergency night operations.
Quentin Kelly, Chairman of WorldWater & Power, noted, “MobileMax(tm) has already proven its value in post-Katrina Waveland, Mississippi – where it is turning contaminated water into clean drinking water for 5,000 to 10,000 residents every day. The new MobileMaxPure is our second-generation device, incorporating everything required by emergency responders. During many disasters, reliable communications is one of the major problems faced in coordinating relief efforts. MobileMaxPure(tm) has solved that problem with on-board satellite-based, wireless voice and data telecommunications, and the power to operate it under the most severe field conditions. MobileMaxPure(tm) can rapidly go wherever needed and make the critical difference for people coping with disasters.”
MobileMaxPure(tm) can pump and purify up to 30,000 gallons of water a day, meeting World Health Organization requirements for drinking water while avoiding the typical logistical issues associated with trucking in bottled water, as experienced along the Gulf coast after Katrina. MobileMaxPure(tm) pumps from streams, ponds, lakes, or from contaminated public water systems, as is often the case after hurricanes; the water is purified through a three-stage filtration process using UV purification. At night, solar-generated electricity stored in the battery array can feed an available 5 horsepower generator to provide lighting and support other emergency operations.
