In the mountainous Ait Baamrane region of Morocco, fog harvesting utilizes dense fog from the Atlantic, providing essential water in a resource-scarce environment. The world's largest fog collection system captures approximately 35,000 liters daily, catering to over 1,000 residents and supporting irrigation. This technology not only aids rural communities but is also applicable to urban areas facing water scarcity, highlighted by a recent study. As locations with fog potential are common, the global implications for such systems in dry regions are substantial, making it a viable solution to water shortages worldwide.
The mountainous region of Ait Baamrane in Morocco harnesses dense fog, creating the world's largest fog collection system that provides water for over 1,000 people.
Fog harvesting collects around 35,000 liters of water daily by condensing water vapor through vertical nets, showing potential for similar systems worldwide.
