0 Australian manufacturing water from the air

The «Airdrop» collects moisture from the atmosphere and converts it into water. Creator is  27 year old Australian inventor Edward Linakr who won the award James Dyson. The «Airdrop» is a low cost autonomous power irrigation device which according to creator can help in watering crops in arid areas or areas affected by drought. The Linakr developed by studying the beetle's Namib Desert, one of the most arid regions. The beetle that manages to survive in conditions of almost total drought by collecting the "coolness" of the early morning hours moisture from the air which saves cavities available in the external skeletons and consumes the next few hours.

Based on the principle that even the most dry air has water molecules in Airdrop collects air from the atmosphere and reduces the temperature until it reaches levels of condensation. The system consists of a network of pipes placed in the ground beneath a crop. The air is pumped from underground pipes and then cooled to create a finished water that is channeled directly to plant roots. The original irrigation system won produce 11.5 ml of water from one cubic meter of air in absolute desert conditions, but according to Linakr can make improvements that will increase the quantity of water.
