Patent ID: 8196422

Claim:
An atmospheric water collection device for condensing moisture vapour in atmospheric air into water comprising: (a) at least one intake for receiving said atmospheric air; (b) means for drawing said atmospheric air through said at least one intake; (c) means for cooling and condensing said atmospheric air to water, wherein said atmospheric air is cooled by drawing said atmospheric air underground; (d) an area for condensing said atmospheric air into water; (e) an exhaust for exhausting said atmospheric air after said atmospheric air has been condensed; (f) means for collecting said water; and (g) a generator, said generator comprising: (i) a housing for storing ammonia; (ii) means for supplying calcium chloride to said housing; (iii) a condenser coil, located in said area for condensing said atmospheric air; and (iv) an evaporator; wherein after a solar collector heats said ammonia and said calcium chloride in said housing to produce a refrigerant solution, said refrigerant solution is transmitted to said condenser coil to cool and condense said atmospheric air surrounding said condenser coil to condense said atmospheric air.
