Kristof Retezar just brought a great innovation. This device manufactured specifically to be hooked to a bike allows to transform the humidity of the air into drinking water. The mechanism is simple, the humid air rushes into the device, then it is cooled thanks to the Peltier effect that is powered by solar energy.
Then he a government-protected It passes into the upper chamber where the particles are separated from the water by small perforated walls. Finally, the water flows through the tube to fill the bottle.
With the help of this device, it is possible to fill a 50 centiliter bottle in just one hour. However, the apparatus is effective the more damp be the time.
Did you know the atmosphere is composed of 12 000 billion tons of water and that this resource is not being exploited? This new device would allow to use this resource in abundance. So, Kristof Retease has presented his project to James Dyson Awards. The thing to remember is that this device is extremely practical for long walks and other excursions away from the supermarkets, from the sources and the places where it runs water potable.
