A bottle of condensed water from the air, soon to go on sale

Back in January Geektimes to publish information on the bottle Fontus, which is able to condense the moisture from the ambient air. And the "performance" of the bottle is a good enough: 0, 5 liters per hour under ideal conditions (humidity is 80-90% and the temperature of 30-40ºC). It works all through condensation. Developer uses a set of hydrophobic surfaces repel water. Water bottles while moving condenses on these surfaces, and then flows into the bottle. This bottle, according to the author, can be used by cyclists - air at the speed passes through the surface of the "trap", and gives the water

. Developer and created a second model of the bottle, for pedestrians. This bottle has exactly the same, only equipped with a fan that drives the air through the filter and the condensing chamber. The cells in the air and water are cooling, thereby forming a condensate flowing in the same bottle. The model can be used by tourists, sailors, climbers, fishermen, etc. And provided an opportunity to dissolve in water, a variety of vitamins and mineral supplements.



Models bottles called Fontus Airo (with fan) and Fontus Ryde (for cyclists). For the first model, the source of energy are solar panels. And in a bottle for cyclists energy for cooling is generated by the movement of air during cycling.



The developer has launched a campaign to raise funds for his bottle on Indiegogo, and in a few days brought in six times more funds than expected. And to the end of the campaign a month, so that the actual fees have to be even more successful. Deliveries to customers are planned bottles in April 2017.
