Patent ID: 7000410

Claim:
A system for extracting water from ambient air, said system comprising, a) a housing; b) first fan means for drawing ambient air into a first section of said housing; c) a particle ionizer, said fan means driving said ambient air through said ionizer to ionize the air; d) a refrigerant system including evaporator plate array positioned to have the ionized air pass adjacent said plate array to cool said air, said refrigerant system cooling said air to a temperature below the dew point of said air to cause water vapor condensation on said plates. e) second fan means for drawing ambient air into a second section of said housing; f) chamber means for mixing said ionized air and ambient air; and g) a conduit for conducting said mixed air from said chamber means to re-circulate and feed back into the stream of air inputted into said ionizer; and, h) means for collecting the water condensed on said plates.
