METHOD FOR PRODUCING WATER FROM AIR Russian patent published in 2017 - IPC E03B3/28 

FIELD: agriculture.

SUBSTANCE: invention relates to the field of autonomous production of fresh drinking water from the surrounding damp, maritime, atmospheric air, and can also be used for domestic and economic needs. The method includes supplying the atmospheric air to the compressed air energy generators, cooling the compressed air flow after the generators in the condenser-receivers (5) with precipitation and humidity takeoff. The atmospheric air sampling is carried out in the vicinity of the sea surface, where its humidity is maximum. The semipermeable membranes (8) are used, which pass only the humid air without dropping water. The humid air is supplied to the compressed air energy generators placed below the sea level and made as compressors (1). The generators are actuated with the energy of sea waves. The movable part (1) of the compressors and the discharge line (6) of the compressors are connected to the condenser-receivers (5) which have positive buoyancy and function as drive of the compressors (1) due to buoyancy force of sea waves. The parts of the compressors (1), which are immovable with respect to the surface of the seabed, are fixed with anchors. Dehumidified air from the condenser-receivers (5) are discharged to the atmosphere through the automatically operating valves (12), thereby maintaining a predetermined excess air pressure in the condenser-receivers (5). The precipitated moisture under the influence of excess pressure in the condenser-receivers (5) cooled with sea water is discharged through the automatically operating float-type valves (10) through the pipelines (11) to the consumer, using compressed air energy in the condenser-receivers (5).

EFFECT: simplified design is provided for implementing the method.
