Abstract

SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR EXTRACTING ATMOSPHERIC WATER An atmospheric water extraction system (100) comprising: a passage (111) having a condenser portion (120) and a cooling portion (132) interconfigured for cyclical passage of fluid therethrough; a cooling unit (113) in thermal communication with the cooling portion (132) for extracting heat from liquid passaging through the cooling portion (132) to thereby cool the liquid, the liquid being transportable to the condenser portion (120) subsequent to passaging through the cooling portion; and an ioniser (118) for ionising ambient air into ionised air, the ionised air being charged for enhancing adhesion of water vapour thereto, wherein the ionised air is transportable for thermal interaction with the condenser portion (120) of the passage for condensing the water vapour into water droplets, the liquid passaging through the condenser portion receiving heat from the ionised air during thermal interaction of the ionised air with the condenser portion, the liquid being transportable to the cooling portion (132) of the passage for re-cooling thereby subsequent to passaging through the condenser portion (120).
