Environmental Water Reclamation System​

OUT OF CHARACTER INFORMATION

• Intent: To create an eco-friendly, modular water harvesting system for the Imperial Commonwealth that functions in both desert and tundra environments. Designed for domestic use and interstellar export to aligned and neutral factions. [Actually, I was watching the Mandalorian Empire peeps play Dune: Awakening, a lot, and I was like, I has idea].

PRODUCTION INFORMATION

• Manufacturer: Commonwealth Corps of Engineers, Primo Victorian Enterprises
• Affiliation: Imperial Commonwealth of Dosuun
• Market Status: Closed-Market
• Model: CES-HYDRALUX-EWRS II
• Modularity: Yes
• Production: Minor
• Material:
  
  • Kiirium-fiber mesh (atmospheric capture)
  • Agrinium casing (EM resistance and sustainability)
    
    • TEBS
  • Commonwealth-recovered durasteel (infrastructure frame)
    
    • Crystalaminum
  • Duraloy cryodrills (ice harvesting)
  • Polycarbon solar condensers
  • Solarium Glasteel, where appropriate.
  • Atmospheric moisture condenser
  • Cryo-thermal sublimation chamber
  • Environmental AI interface
  • Solar and low-draw fusion energy options
  • Modular deployment shell for easy planetary installation

SPECIAL FEATURES

• Dual-Source Mode: Automatically switches between air condensation and ice processing depending on terrain and temperature.
• Climate Adaptive Shell: Designed with Agrinium and plastoid-ceramic composites for resistance to sand abrasion and sub-zero temperatures.
• Integrated AI Module: Manages environmental analysis, flow rate optimization, and climate change tracking.
• Capacity Modularization: Can scale from individual homestead units to community-scale water towers.
• Environmental Reclamation Compatibility: Can be paired with greenhouses, habitat domes, or terraforming outposts.
• EM & Weather Shielding – Agrinium-coated frame protects against ion storms, heat surges, and blizzards.
• Frontier Compatible – Designed to be deployed via orbital drop-pod or land-based delivery.
• Low Ecological Impact – Zero-waste system, no harmful emissions, and fully recyclable construction.

STRENGTHS

• All-Climate Operation: Fully functional in deserts, tundras, frozen mountain ranges, or wastelands.
• Eco-Friendly and Self-Sufficient: Needs minimal power input and leaves no environmental damage.
• Export-Ready: Designed to interface with most major planetary infrastructure grids.
• Frontier Modularization: Scales from personal homestead to town-wide systems with additional units.

WEAKNESSES

• Low Combat Durability: While armored for environment, it is not meant to withstand direct assault.
• Needs Startup Calibration: Initial deployment takes 12–24 hours of analysis before peak efficiency.
• Limited Water Yield in Ultra-Dry or Vacuum Worlds: Effectiveness drops sharply in airless or hyper-arid zones without any atmospheric humidity or accessible ice.
• Export Control: Commonwealth restricts export to hostile nations or warzones to prevent misuse or sabotage.

DESCRIPTION
Developed during the Commonwealth’s Signal State infrastructure initiative, the HYDRALUX EWRS represents a cornerstone of sustainable colonial expansion, terraforming assistance, and humanitarian aid. Its dual-function design allows for efficient water reclamation in vastly different environments—drawing trace moisture from air in parched wastelands or melting subsurface ice in glacial extremes.

The Mk II variant improves yield, adds greater weatherproofing, and introduces Commonwealth-standard AI modules for autonomous operation. The system is frequently used in remote Commonwealth settlements, arid colonies, and tundra enclaves such as those on Dyspeth, Thustra, or Aeten II.

While highly prized on the open market, HYDRALUX-EWRSs are also part of the Commonwealth's diplomatic toolkit, included in development aid packages or sold to neutral planetary governments with infrastructure gaps. It is increasingly seen as a symbol of post-First Order restoration efforts and the Commonwealth's commitment to ethical tech diplomacy.
