AUTONOMOUS APPARATUS FOR EXTRACTING WATER FROM THE AIR
An apparatus for extracting water from ambient air is disclosed comprising an air duct for the process air, an air duct for the regeneration air and a sorption exchanger moving at least partially between the two air ducts. Additionally, in the air duct for the regeneration air, on the side facing the sorption exchanger outlet, a cooler is installed, and on the side facing its inlet, a heater is installed. The apparatus also comprises a closed refrigerant circuit. The cooler for cooling the regeneration air is a refrigerant evaporator and this cooler is, by the refrigerant piping via a compressor for the evaporated refrigerant suction and compression, connected to the regeneration air heater, where this heater for heating the regeneration air is a condenser for condensing the refrigerant vapor. The apparatus also comprises a subcooler for additional heat removal from the refrigerant.
