AquaColector

We propose an atmospheric moisture trap to be placed in plantations such as vineyards where it takes advantage of the air streams flowing between the vines while the shadow of the plants allow to reduce the temperature of the collector to allow adequate water condensation on the "artificial leaf" that carry water to the base of each vine. It consists of an injection molded plastic base (high strength polypropylene completely recyclable), in which are placed "leaves" made ​​with recycled PET sheet with microchannels containing hydrophilic and hydrophobic nanoparticles, the process of manufacturing is simply cut and roll up the "leaves ". -The materials can be recycled and used recycled material. -Manufacturing processes allow for high volume production. -It requires minimal maintenance, reducing labor cost and energy consumption, as well as installation. -For use in vineyards, avoiding the cost of installing drip irrigation systems. His size will not interfere in the process of growing and harvesting. -The design offers an effective area of ​​0.4 meters square for each module, which would generate 1.2 liters per hour. Her carriage or storage is reduced.
