- Small-bore deep-well access to water below the water table. Pump the
water by kite system. (Pushing action)
- Open sea water pumped to higher ground for various purposes
including desalination processing.
- Pump water to to feed industrial processes. Water could be at or
near level that is used in the processes. Processes might be cleaning,
cooling, chemical reactions.
- Pump water to a "water battery" for rectification or smoothing of
forces. Have reservoir small or large (tank or lake, etc.) as a holder
of water head for potential energy for later use in hydroelectric
processes. Pump when the wind blows and use the potential energy gained
when the energy is needed.
- Pump water when the water is a carrier of materials like sand to do
construction works, say renewal of a sandy beach (getting sand from one
place and carrying the sand via pumped moving water) ...
- Pump water to irrigate agricultural scenes.
- Pump water to fight fires.
- Pump water to sprayers to cool and damp atmosphere or local
settings.
- Pump water to wash the faces of solar panels in large solar farms.
- Pump water to form a pleasing artistic fountain.
- Pump water to spray over people to cool them in hot situations or
for summer play.
- Pump water in water recreation parks to give the low-friction water
rides.
- Pump water to carry sewage to treatment spaces or
processes.
- Pump water to bring in oxygenated water for fish farming and
hydroponics.
- Pump water to feed the top of a tall pipe that is filled with
natural water filters in order to get potable water at the lower end of
the vertically-set pipe-of-filters.
- Pump water out of the hulls of boats and ships.
- Post flood: pump water out of basements, cellars, low spots on land.
- Pump water to the drinking containers for animals.
- Pump water to water guns which are used for cleaning surfaces of
buildings and walkways.
- Pump water to a freezing area or space to increase ice quantity.
- Pump water to ice to advance melt of the ice.
- Pump water to drive needed erosion in particular spaces.
- Pump water that is used in mining operations.
- Pump water to keep a pseudo-renewal of a creek or waterway or
waterfall for various reasons.
- Pump water to wet lawns.
- Pump water to change the color of ground surfaces during special
photographic operations.
- Pump water to form a human-body cleansing shower.
- Pump water ... because one can pump water-- during AWE Festivals to
advance the message of Era K3.
- Pump water at regular kite festivals to demonstrate Era K3.
- Pump water to recharge aquifers.
- Pump water to irrigate a farm
- Pump water to get a drink - gulp - ahhhh.... :)
- Pump water into stagnate water regions to freshen things.
- Pump water into canals to help operations.
- Pump water to kite-lifted bags or tanks for use aloft in
aerotecture.
- Pump water to ballast bags.
- Pump water to a wrecking bag. Filled bag could be moved by
kite system for purpose of demolition.
- Pump water or air into a vehicle inflatable tire tube or tire.
- Pump air into a storage tank for later use with air-driven machines
and air-driven tools.

Pumping water may have a much larger future than current use. There is
demand in ocean dead zones for layer mixing of nutrients and dissolved
gasses. This process can restart life systems previously poisoned or
killed by over fishing. (caveat: the wrong type of phytoplankton / or
algae may grow and rot to methane) Mixing of thermoclines and flows is
also being claimed as ecologically desirable. ~ Rod Read

- A simple tarp / vane anchored to the seabed at all corners but with
one end floated, one end sunk, can act as a deflector to encourage
mixing in a flow. This is a pump of one sort. Massively effectual,
minimal tech.

- In the absence of tidal or ocean flow then lifting by large kite of
bags of deep water to shallows ... steered by boats.. may be very
useful.
