Portable Irrigation System Producing Water from Air for Sustainable Living: “ECO-WATER-GEN”

Sürdürülebilir bir yaşam için sürdürülebilir ve yenilenebilir kaynakların verimli bir şekilde kullanılması önem taşımaktadır. Bu doğrultuda, bu çalışmada yaşamın önemli parçalarından olan tatlı su kaynaklarının ve yenilenebilir enerji kaynaklarının önemini vurgulayarak, doğal kaynakları korumak konusunda farkındalık yaratmak amaçlanmıştır. Bu kapsamda, güneş enerjisini kullanarak, havada gaz formunda bulunan suyu, termoelektrik modüller ve fanlar yardımıyla kontrollü olarak soğutup, yoğuşma yoluyla suyu depolayan ve ihtiyaca göre kontrollü bir şekilde sulama yapabilen, taşınabilir, bitki sulayan bir sistem geliştirilmiştir. Deneysel çalışma sonucunda sistem ile üretilen su miktarı teorik hesaplamalar ile örtüşmektedir. Böylece bu sistem ile, kontrollü yoğuşma yoluyla optimum miktarda su elde edilerek, evsel bitkileri veya hobi bahçelerini sulamak mümkün olacaktır.

Anahtar Kelimeler:

Sürdürülebilirlik, su verimliliği, enerji verimliliği, sulama sistemi

Portable Irrigation System Producing Water from Air for Sustainable Living: “ECO-WATER-GEN”

It is important to use sustainable and renewable resources efficiently for a sustainable life. In this direction, in this study, it is aimed to emphasize the importance of freshwater resources and renewable energy resources, which are important parts of life, and to raise awareness about protecting natural resources. In this context, a portable, plant watering system has been developed that uses solar energy to cool the gaseous water in the air in a controlled manner with the help of thermoelectric modules and fans, stores the water by condensation, and can irrigate in a controlled manner as needed. As a result of the experimental study, the amount of water produced by the system is equal to the theoretical calculations. In this way, with this system it will be possible to irrigate domestic plants or hobby gardens by obtaining the optimum amount of water through controlled condensation.

Keywords:

Sustainability, water efficiency, energy efficiency, irrigation system,
