Adsorption air water-intaking equipment
What the present invention relates to is a kind of adsorption air water-intaking equipment, adopts compound suction-operated to realize the air water-intaking process, belongs to fresh water and obtains the technology type field.
Along with Increase of population, the transition of weather and the deterioration of environment, the water supply problem becomes more and more outstanding.Local industry, agricultural and the human lives demand to water can't have been satisfied in many in the world areas.
At present, do not having the contaminated area in underground water, seawater or water source, the water supply problem mainly transports solution by the other places, but on the one hand owing to climatic deterioration, environment pollution, the available water resource is in continuous minimizing; On the other hand, because it is higher to transport cost, cause its remote or very difficult realization of economic backward area in the geographical position.For stable society, develop the economy and uplift the people's living standard, it is extremely urgent to take efficient ways to solve the water supply problem.
Earth atmosphere can be described as a huge reservoir, even desert area, its water content also surpasses 10g/m
3Because migration and ternary the conversion are taken place for the effect of centrifugal force and sun heat radiation, the water of earth surface, causing atmosphere is the terminal of surface water circulation forever.According to the conservation of mass of water, along with air themperature raises, surface water capacity can reduce because of evaporation, but the absolute moisture content of air is increasing.Therefore, under the situation that does not have face of land freshwater resources or freshwater resources to be polluted, air just becomes the main source that we obtain fresh water.
In the existing device for fetching water from air technology, have a header tank is installed in air-conditioner, the water collection of output existed in the water tank when evaporimeter in the air-conditioner was freezed, and then just can be used as drinking water from the water tank outflow.The operating principle of this device for fetching water from is: during energising, the air-conditioner refrigeration, its evaporator temperature is lower, and ambient air temperature is higher, when evaporator temperature was lower than the dewpoint temperature of ambient air, airborne steam just can be at the surface sweating of evaporimeter and is produced aqueous water.This method needs kind of refrigeration cycle that cold is provided, so cost is higher, and efficiency of producing drinking water is lower, if consider the double evaporation-cooling of water again, its water withdrawal will be still less.
