Capturing Water From the Air
Check this out. Someone has come up with a way to extract the water from the atmosphere the way leaves dew, get it?
The structure collects dew and makes it into fresh water. I have to ask about acid rain type water, or water passing through a polluted atmosphere? But it is quite a nice structure as far as contemporary sculpture, which is up my alley, maybe not so much for country folk.
It’s not big, provides shade, does not take up a lot of space around the bottom and yields 48 liters of water per day! Holy Cow, if a liter is a tad over a quart (1.0567 quarts), then 48 liters is 12.68 gallons. Couple this with reduced shower usage, a water saver shower head, low flow toilets, gray water recycling system, this WatAir as it’s called, gets close to what all is needed in a two person household. My two person household does a heck of a lot less laundry, dishwasher loads, and such than larger households.
One of these atmospheric dew extractors in a place like Michigan could have a ridiculous yield. But would we homeowners keep viable water from re-entering the Great Lakes?
