ABSTRACT: It is now
assumed that climate warming is effective and noticeable. It not only leads to a
lack of water that is increasing in desert areas, but it must be kept in mind
that the inhabitants of the villages located in the geographical areas whose
access to water is difficult, make binding efforts to gain access to water.
This article proposes to present the possibility of obtaining water by the
condensation of the water vapors of the air by applying the thermodynamic
processes of the humid air as well as those of the refrigerating installations.
In fact, atmospheric air contains suspended water vapors. When this steam cools
below its rose point, there is condensation if water vapors and liquid water or
ice appears. It was obtained a quantity of condensed vapors in a refrigeration
facility. This amount is directly proportional to the refrigeration power whose
efficiency can be improved by the use of photovoltaic energy given the reduced financial cost of this energy.
This seems to be a hope among the possible solutions to be considered for the
resolution of the water issue.
