Well it's great that someone is utilizing this effect but it's not really a discovery or revelation, except perhaps in the specifics of his device. Not trying to diminish this young man's efforts, but there are videos all over RUclips showing setups that utilize the same effect. One little utilized approach that would have the greatest impact would be harvesting water from the air conditioning/cooling process of buildings. I've seen it being done on a college campus in hot, drought ridden Texas, where they were supplying all the landscape watering needs with just the harvested water, which in turn offset the cost of electricity for cooling the buildings. Two birds with one stone is always better. This is also more efficient because they are simply adding a component onto an already established system that does all the "work", so there is no need for a separate facility or laying miles of copper pipe to form a condenser network.
This have NEVER been proven a scam. Its real. Israel have donr this for years. Australia are working on it too. Condens for water are not a new ide, but have become more popular the last years. Look at water from air, and think. Is it water in the air and can we cat the water out of the air? Think before you scream SCAM,
The invention is the combination of a small power generator and the use of temperature difference between the humid air and the cooler earth in one small independent device. Physics are always the same, but the invention is, to know how to use it. So that is great, but success is determined by the price of the device, the humidity of the air and the actual output.
The Army has been doing that for years. Dig a hole place your rubberized parka over it to cover the hole. Place a rock in the middle for the water to flow towards a point, put your belt under the rock and it makes a quart or two of water over night.
AerialGuardian The Israelis just came up with a system of micro sized plastic type tubeing that screens salt out of salt water from the ocean. I'd recommend distilling it. A lens that is a yard wide can focus sunlight 12" from its center and melt steel in 3 minutes. You only need a set of lens, a foot in diameter, in a box set, as in an array configuration, to evaporate a whole bunch of salt water in an oil barrel lets say, there is your salt water to fresh water, distiller. Look up how to make a water distiller on RUclips. The water is mineral empty and over time your body will need minerals as would plants. Enter the salt water filtration. That water has minerals. Combine the two waters and bottle it for sale$$. Ka-jing.😎 I'm smart.😏
That does NOT make a "quart or 2", unless it's raining. I did it too and got MAYBE 1/4 a cup of water in a 90% humidity area. This was one of the boy scout's badges that you had to do.
That relies on moisture in the soil, and it works. This one relies on the ground for low temperature, but supposedly gets water out of humidity in the air. Bullshit. See Thunderf00t's debunking of the WaterSeer.
This guy has made nothing. Yet they put him on mainstream news. Moses West a black man actually has a finished product and its in use and they don't mention him at all.
Tom, It's funny you say that.. my home made water contraption has been working flawlessly for about a year now. I get about 2 to 3 gallons a day. What do you think a dehumidifier does? Passes air over a condenser coil.
Nobody proved them to be fake. Link a credible source. Also, have you never heard of a dehumidifier? It pulls water from the air and routes it to your drain.
I was thinking along those term too. And if there is enough humidity or barely enough, with so many people doing this in a location, wouldn't it really dry out the air so the humidity would be close to 4,3,2 or lower. I can see it on the news. Draught weary California can't catch a break. Draught so severe the air is completely dry. Laundry clothes dry in seconds or in a couple minutes for sure. . .
Well done to this young man to do this , if he was unaware that this was done in many places a long time ago.Nothing new here or by so many other people claiming invention etc about water from air. we did this at high school,
you can do this with an air condition system. it will collect water from the moisture of the Air. yes , it has to be really super cold to collect water.
Skoda130 word. Theres no reason we as a society arent pulling more water out of the air in areas where its plentiful for those in areas that are not. My dehumidifier and evap coil produced 20gallons of water a day, every day for the months of July and August. 1200 gallons of fresh water from one household. Used it to water my garden and wash the trucks. We can pump sludge cross-country, we can do the same with H2O. But they can also literally make it rain, yet choose to allow the drought-related catastrophes to persist world wide.
Murphy James, exactly. Water is good carrier of heat, you need a long Properly shaped pool of water that convects with sole purpose of carrying heat away from the point of condensation. Im also thinking a pressure drop or other aid so it condensates at lower humidities and still works.
ahhh, he didnt come up with that from looking at condensation on a glass. not the same concept. plus, that type of machine has been around for a while, he just added a solar cell to spin the blades on top.
Spray crystals into clouds and it makes them suck up moisture and makes it rain. They did that in Beijing or and they got snow instead because they did it in winter.
Yes. The update is "Turns out this technology was invented decades ago, and is called a dehumidifier. It doesn't work well for providing water to arid regions, because there isn't much water in the air - period."
hotels have had machines to suck moisture out of their rooms with water damage for decades. star wars tatooine and dune had wind catchers for water condensing collections.
Reverse osmosis has been used in submarines and in space for sooo long.. Condensation on the side of the glass is caused because cold air can not hold as much moisture as warm air. Therefore the water is theoretically sucked out of the air and onto the cold object. This "new" invention has been around for decades.
This is not new. I came up with this idea a few years ago and and am still to implement it on my land. In my research I found that plenty of people had already had the same idea.
the same as an Atmospheric Water Generator witch you can buy now only it utilizes underground cooling the same way we can utilize unrground cooling for air condition

Seem like a fail idea as the California draught still ongoing after 7y of this invention. Poor kid. Whoever can invent an efficient way to make fresh water is a savior of Earth.
You can buy dehumidifiers, they take a lot of power. This method would heat up the ground, and you would get a few grams of water. Much better to use a large solar panel, around 2000 watts, and hook it up to a store bought dehumidifier. Both parts are well engineered and proven, this guy has proven nothing.
It’s only a dehumidifier. One of the most inefficient ways to produce water. This in now way will reduce anyones water woes. I You can buy one at Walmart.
Because the people in charge of getting food and water to impoverished areas know more on the topic than you. It takes a great deal of power to get water from the area. You cannot get around the laws of thermodynamics. It is way cheaper to literally ship water to impoverished areas than send these large dehumidifiers that will barely get any water when humidity is less than 30%.

Shame on him for not immediately addressing the fact that he did not invent this device. Students these days are so ready and willing to accept credit anywhere they can get it even if they don't deserve it. FOR SHAAAAAAAAME!!!!
There are a alot of dumb comments on these video but how it works is simple. Remember the big the fan for the in take air the better. As you force lot value of air in tiny space it gets hot and hotter then he sides though a copper coil under ground with is cooler the the in coming air so out the end you get water if you also have the coils in a body of water it would cool it even faster getting you ever more water. it's a simple idea they are called dehumidifiers. Don't go around removing tons of water from the air without doing some serious planting trees brushes grasses wheats hops corns peppers tomatoes mosses heck even use some to grow mushrooms then after the logs no longer produce mushrooms bury in the ground to help the soils hold onto more water when it rains.
Look at all the intelligent Americans commenting as if they have even tried to make anything better. Yes the concept is not new, but shouldnt u first try it at least before calling it off?

This was originally called a water seer.
Look how it has ice in it I bet that is cheap and affordable in poor countries..
zach korinis sorry to tell you this but it's bullshit
Ya turns out it's not practical for drought areas but maybe as a may to get clean water from vapour at a dirty source?
you are very silly you get the ice from freezing the water you produced clearly ...that only needs a freezer to do so can you not see it dose all the work for you ..in few more years it will even sow the fields and feed your kids hamburgers ..careful it dont steal your wife and drown the cats when it gets super sentinel and takes over the world ..just a matter of time
I've already invested in a side project called the Sterling engine and combined with Archimedes principle water pumped from deep earth will become more available. The sentients are coming! .... for real
zach korinis
That sounds like Pumping water out of the ground ...That has nothing to with evaporation or osmosis ...We can all ready Pump water
so it forces water through a loop of copper tubing to slow and cool the air releasing the water there in?
1/3 gallon per day in California. Scale up.
Why are we not doing this?
because you aint thirsty ?
Because it's FAR cheaper to ship the water.
Seem like a fail idea as the California draught still ongoing after 7y of this invention. Poor kid. Whoever can invent an efficient way to make fresh water is a savior of Earth.
You can buy dehumidifiers, they take a lot of power. This method would heat up the ground, and you would get a few grams of water. Much better to use a large solar panel, around 2000 watts, and hook it up to a store bought dehumidifier. Both parts are well engineered and proven, this guy has proven nothing.
Just us plastic in the sun, have you ever seen a sweaty window.
And his project needs to have fan blades that are moved by the air!
Is bro the blood bender?
I will make a trial in Algarve where water is a crucial problem
Dehumidifiers have been around for a long time
It’s only a dehumidifier. One of the most inefficient ways to produce water. This in now way will reduce anyones water woes. I
You can buy one at Walmart.
If a young man can do this why hasn't the government's around the world have done this in drought conditions
Because they can’t profit off of it
Because the people in charge of getting food and water to impoverished areas know more on the topic than you. It takes a great deal of power to get water from the area. You cannot get around the laws of thermodynamics. It is way cheaper to literally ship water to impoverished areas than send these large dehumidifiers that will barely get any water when humidity is less than 30%.
Why not wind turbine? small or big? That is 24x7?
SHOW US HOW IT WORKS
Not new to the world existance but new to him. Now if he is looking to improve and make the process more efficient and inexpensive then that would be the noveltiy. "There is Nothing New Under the Sun" Ecclesiastes 1:4-11
He did not invent the condenser or the dehumidifier and im sure he wasn’t the first one to ever cool something off by burying it.
Uncle Ebb called it a still
It is not new technology. A dehumidifier and distiller does the samething more or less.
He is doing good work though!
It's a great idea, but there are no minerals in it, they have to be added for the liquid to be the same as mineralized water.
+koaheart True, if you drink it but you can still use it for growing crops. Will be very expensive to use in large scale farming but it's still possible. Actually, there are already systems developed for that...
Man this technology has been around for hundred of years, this is not new!
Excellent !
It's called a cold piece of metal.
Moses West created this technology over ten years ago and it’s still running successfully today.
It's a dehumidifier with a filter. The technology is over one hundred years old.
@@golden-63 what I’m talking about is not the same thing and it has not been around for 100 years.
@@golden-63 it’s not that basic and simple as your saying it it. There’s more to it than just a filter
No a dehumidifier has been around a lot longer than 10 years 🙄.
@@katkit4281 no shit Sherlock. If you looked up the guy I’m talking about. You would see his invention is way different. But ok carry on smart ass
So it's basically a dehumidifier...
Shame on him for not immediately addressing the fact that he did not invent this device. Students these days are so ready and willing to accept credit anywhere they can get it even if they don't deserve it. FOR SHAAAAAAAAME!!!!
He came up with it on his own, apparently. Doesn't matter if others thought of similar systems.
There are a alot of dumb comments on these video but how it works is simple. Remember the big the fan for the in take air the better. As you force lot value of air in tiny space it gets hot and hotter then he sides though a copper coil under ground with is cooler the the in coming air so out the end you get water if you also have the coils in a body of water it would cool it even faster getting you ever more water. it's a simple idea they are called dehumidifiers. Don't go around removing tons of water from the air without doing some serious planting trees brushes grasses wheats hops corns peppers tomatoes mosses heck even use some to grow mushrooms then after the logs no longer produce mushrooms bury in the ground to help the soils hold onto more water when it rains.
Seriously this kid just took this idea and pretended he invented it hahahaha
Look at all the intelligent Americans commenting as if they have even tried to make anything better. Yes the concept is not new, but shouldnt u first try it at least before calling it off?
The technology has been available for decades. Ask yourself, why hasn't this caught on?
Distilled water, not edible
Nothing new here , can be done without electronics.
Condensation is everywhere in nature.
What a cup of water a year
Always the crybaby trolls running their arrogant mouths as usual. Let's see what you got then Trolls!
Happens every morning. Dew.
Desiccant dehumidifier
already invented in Australia!!!!! look at the Tyson company award.
Governments will not allow this to get out.
No. Atmospheric water generators have been around for a century.
Isn’t this just a dehumidifier?
Didnt know humid air had water in it thanks yt
This is the waterseer essentially. And nah sayers claim it doesn’t work when all physics says that it does or we would have to discard basic science. Can’t have it both ways debunkers. Information is power.
