Coastal Fog Tower – Design and Fabrication Process of a Vertical Fog Capture Device

-

Artigo:

The coastal fog-harvesting tower project is a proposal that seeks to develop a water capture system from the condensation of coastal fog and rain, in a vertical structure that allows greater efficiency in collecting ambient humidity versus current bi-dimensional horizontal systems. The water availability in our country has declined over the last decade, so innovative solutions are required to take advantage of our unique coastal water potential. Using digital and analogue design technologies has been possible to develop a highly replicable and adaptable structural solution that can bring an affordable answer to this problem.
