NO CHEMICALS
No chemicals employed, no side effects caused and no waste products generated
Most advanced technology to enhance precipitation
WeatherTec Ionization Technology enhances rainfalls in semi-arid regions covering thousands of km2. The Ionization increases natural rainfall development by mimicking the sun’s ionization and is completely environment-friendly without generating any waste products.
Ionization enhances the effects of the sun
The Ionization Technology is based on charging aerosols in the atmosphere with the 3rd generation WeatherTec Emitter Stations at the ground.
The aerosols carry negative charges to the clouds which enhance condensation processes and growth of water particles, e.g. liquid drops and ice structures by triggering the natural microphysical processes in the clouds. When entering the influenced area, rain cells grow in size, strengthen rainfall intensity, and extend their life-span.
WeatherTec experts have gathered many years of experience to control this process in over 150 rainfall enhancement cases on three continents where they increased the amount of precipitation.
Ionization is completely environmentally friendly
WeatherTec Ionization Technology is completely environmentally friendly as just negative ions are generated. Such negative ions are employed in hospitals and offices by numerous “ionizers” to create a better health or work environment.
Furthermore, no chemicals are used or waste products left afterwards like in other rainfall enhancement technologies (i.e. cloud seeding by planes). Experts believe that this is by far the largest source for additional freshwater on earth and has been defined by the Munich Security Conference as “Black Swan Technology”: the right solution at the right time with global impact for an imminent problem.
TECHNOLOGY EXPLANATION
How it works
PURE NEGATIVE IONS
Generated negative ions are environmentally friendly and healthy.
CO2 nuetral
Mimics the Suns Ionization Process, and does not produce any CO2emission

PROF. DR. ANTON MANGSTL
Prof. Dr. Anton Mangstl is an agricultural scientist and is a specialist in agrarian informatics and knowledge management.
Examples of his breakthrough projects are the development of the information system for plant cultivation (ISPLANZ), the development of planning and forecasting models and is the founder of the Society for Computer Science in Agriculture (GIL).
ADVISORY
PROF. DR. Jörg Imberger
Professor Dr. Jörg Imberger was Professor of Environmental Engineering at the University of Western Australia, Perth and Chair of its Centre for Water Research. He is an avid environmentalist who is also a member of the Scientific Advisory Board for Earthwatch.
1996 he received the "Stockholm Water Prize", also known as "Water Nobel Prize". Jörg Imberger is seen as a landmark in the research focused on water movements in rivers, lakes and coastal regions. The most respectful commentators talk about "before and after Imberger."
