MUMBAI, India, Feb. 6 -- Intellectual Property India has published a patent application (202541085041 A) filed by Dr. Dayakar G. Devaru; Dr. Rathnakar G; Dr. Vijaya Kumar M. S; Dr. Rishi J P; Mr. Ravishankar M D; Dr. Shwetha Subbanna; and Mr. Kiran A S, Mysuru, Karnataka, on Sept. 8, 2025, for 'atmospheric water extraction system powered by renewable energy.'
Inventor(s) include Dr. Dayakar G. Devaru; Dr. Rathnakar G; Dr. Vijaya Kumar M. S.; Dr. Rishi J P; Mr. Ravishankar M D; Dr. Shwetha Subbanna; and Mr. Kiran A S.
The application for the patent was published on Feb. 6, under issue no. 06/2026.
According to the abstract released by the Intellectual Property India: "An atmospheric water extraction system powered by renewable energy integrates air purification, desiccant-based moisture capture, controlled regeneration, condensation, and multi-barrier potable-water treatment. Ambient air is drawn through dust and carbon filters and across a rotary desiccant wheel where water vapour is adsorbed. A solar-thermal loop heats a regeneration airstream to desorb the moisture; the humid stream is routed to a condenser that rejects heat to ambient air and/or a radiative condenser panel for night-time cooling and dew collection. Condensate flows through a potable-water train comprising a sediment filter, carbon block filter, UV reactor regulated by a dose controller, and a remineralization cartridge before storage in a sterile tank. A photovoltaic supply, sensors and a microcontroller coordinate wheel rotation, regeneration temperature, condenser selection, and water-quality safeguards including diversion to drain during start-up or fault conditions. The system delivers drinking water from atmospheric humidity with low power and scalability for off-grid deployments."
