Hydropanels : Advantages of Desiccant cooling system

[@rjung_ch]

A very interesting source of clean water. It's for areas with little or no water, so that's a great thing for the people living in such areas. Anyone with clean water out of their tap and comment how much this costs have other issues to worry about, so better not do calculations for something they'll not need. Thanks for your commitment of relaying knowledge on great topics! 👍💪✌

I pay around 67 pounds per month for my tap water. And its hard water. I pay another 15 pounds per month for drinking mineral water

[@rjung_ch]

@@synergyfiles3536 Those are shocking high numbers, I was not aware of. In which area is this the case?

[@synergyfiles3536]

Anglian Water. Milton Keynes

​@@synergyfiles3536 Have you got a water meter installed? Ours is about £30 a month on a meter for 4 people (Northumbrian Water)

[@tarant315]

Good video, a lot of remote areas could make use of it. Especially as it is very basic

[@malekzantout5171]

I would like to get more information please I'm interested you mentioned ecoblue

Let's look at some numbers. Since this panel does not generate water, but extracts it from the air, the amount of water will depend on the humidity of the air. Let's assume that the humidity is 30%. At this humidity (and a temperature of 30 degrees Celsius), 2 gallons of water are contained in... 841 cubic meters of air. Most likely, the panel does not extract all the water from the air that passes through it. Let's assume that the panel extracts 50% of the moisture from the air. Then, to get 2 gallons of water, 1682 cubic meters of air must be passed through the panel. On average, 1 cubic meter of air contains about 100 micrograms of dust. In less dusty areas, this figure drops to 5 micrograms, but in dustier areas (for example, deserts) - up to 1000 micrograms. But on average, it is about 100 micrograms per cubic meter of air. If you pass 1600 cubic meters of air through the panel every day, then the unit will get... ummm 58 kilograms of dust per year. Of course, some of the dust will come out. But some will remain. Let's say half will remain. But 29 kilograms of dust is also a lot. Where will this dust end up? In the collected water? Most likely - no. Most likely, there should be a coarse filter there that will collect all this dust. But... how often should it be changed, if we assume that 29 kg of dust needs to be collected (80 grams daily)? Perhaps some of these 29 kilograms will remain inside the panel. So... won't this reduce the panel's throughput? Will fungi and colonies of other microorganisms appear in the panel? And 29 kg of dust is an indicator for an average dustiness of 100 micrograms per cubic meter of air. And what will happen in regions with a dustiness of 1000 micrograms per cubic meter? The most important thing is that replacing the filters does not seem so cheap.

Hi ! Great video, Can you please give some website's open source of evtol ? 🤗 I really need it 🤲🏾

[@synergyfiles3536]

Opensource eVTOL?

[@kamogelok5315]

Bigger Panel = More Water?

[@FREDNAJAH]

What about smog pollutants and pollen in the air. How does it get purified if there is no pressure behind the water? The actual cost of water per gallon on my bill is less than 10c, so these machines would take 6000 years to get paid off and doesn't count the cost of installation.

[@synergyfiles3536]

There is an air filter at the point where air is sucked in

[@mpatel3728]

36 kg = approx 80 lbs 🤔

[@jaimeortega4940]

Hmm, I heard if you laid the Source panels flat and used them as a rain catchment system you would actually harvest more water.

[@synergyfiles3536]

Rain catchment is good, but you cannot depend on it. Plus in most arid regions, rainfall occurs for may be 2 months a year

[@ambrosiod605]

1 to 2.5 gallons per day and they cost $2900+ with minimum of 2 units. I'm sure the payoff on that is only about 500 yrs or so
