We’re leaving the grid behind to live off the land and research sustainability. In this episode, we have to figure out how to get water when there is none - so along with an assist by Kevin from CZcams’s Modern Self Reliance channel, we’re creating a ten meter high Dew Harvester and a rainwater collection system. It’s part of asapSCIENCE’s brand new series with CZcams Originals designed to help us all meet our sustainability goals and to combat Climate Change.
To see everything that CZcams and Google are doing to create a more sustainable Earth, please visit sustainability.....

Old indian houses, have that system already, tiles are laid in such a way, that water flows into center and u have a collection system there. It also provides extra ventilation in the house.
Not the new ones, though. Sadly, borewells are popular. Water catchment areas are seen as saleable real estate for greedy politicians. Hence seasonal flooding in residential areas that shouldn't be there in the first place..
Why we keep talking about Old Indian Houses here? India's emissions are the worst on this planet now...so What India is doing for the planet.. planning Zero carbon by 2070? 🤣 they won't make it till 4070

@Dmon ! Nuclear is fine but needs to be used in conjunction with renewables. Will help us shift away from fossil fuels faster.

Up here in Finland we have so many beautiful, clean lakes. I often think how grateful I am I’m able to drink clean, refreshing water from the lake just outside my door. 🥰
Same
Sounds great, but you still need to filter the lake water, right?
@@DashingPartyCrasher Depends on the lake and local conditions but usually not. I often drink the lake water straight without boiling while I’m out camping. 🙂
The water collectors are amazing. But the most underrated part is that you created a beautiful straw sofa that looks nicer than the couches owned by lots of people I know. 🛋️😂
I grew up on a farm. There was no such thing as tap water. We had a pair of 10,000 gallon tanks few from rainwater and a dam that pumped water into another 5000 gallon tank that was for watering gardens and showering.
Even in Australia where it can go 8 or 9 months without rain we never ran out.
@@LITERALHAT we're in Sydney now so no rainwater. We had an 4000m2 block about 2 hours from Brisbane previously with a huge shed and about 40,000L rainwater storage. It watered the gardens and lawn. Its illegal to use it in the house without a fairly expensive filter system that makes it taste nasty so it's only plumbed into the toilets and washing machine.
We once went 11 and a half months with no rain and it ran out so luckily we had the town water hook up as well!
On the farm we had a 5000l settling tank that we would fill with dam water and lime and make fresh water if we got low. It worked well but wasn't fun to clean out the silt!
Where did you keep the drinking water?
Are u down under somewhere? Here in Sth. Australia, almost every home had a rainwater tank, then new developers moved in, and didn't replace them. Which means more people have to get water from the water utilities. Dumb move. In some parts of the US it is illegal to collect rainwater, another dumb move. Whereas in Australia new tank sales are steady. By yourselves a scythe and save on petrol, when cutting the grass.
@@brianmorris8045 yeah I was in Qld. When we built our house a water tank was mandatory.
We're in Sydney now and trying to FIND a water tank is impossible!
Its illegal to drink rain water without an expensive filter system that requires a lot of maintenance. Theres hardly any solar down here as well whereas everyone had solar hot water and most people had a small solar system back home.
I can't believe it would be illegal to collect rainwater. Some really dumb leaders in the world these days. Keep up the great work. ✌️
for the dew collector, something to shake or flick the mesh every hour or so should increase your yield exponentially.
great work!
like a bucket at the bottom that fills and pushes down one side of a seesaw, attached by a bar that lets it rotate, and eventually gets past a little bar or something that causes it to tip and dump all its water into a bigger bucket or tub, which then lets the seesaw tip back up and the weight on the other side thumps something attached to the mesh and shakes it. could also build it so it collects in multiple buckets on seesaws all that thump a thing that shakes the mesh, so you get much more frequent thumping.
Exactly. By the time the water drips from the top to the bottom it will have time already to evaporate, even faster if it's windy. It would be ideal in the desert with no wind at all or if it was closed with air restriction and control.
@@notablediscomfort That kinda sounds like how a shishi-odoshi (scaredeer) works. Except instead of the bamboo making a bonk sound, it shakes the mesh.
I'm not sure if it would help but I suspect vertical V-shaped channels would also be a better form for the mesh than just normal rope fibers. I believe that once a droplet grows to a big enough size, surface tension would give way to the droplet sliding down the tiny channel all the way into the basin. In that way, they would be shaped and function like grass leaves. Also it should be stacked in layers like a bookshelf, each with its own collector, that way the dew doesnt have to travel far to be collected.
@@Zadamanim I would also look into something like waxing or ceramic coating the mesh. I know a good wax or ceramic coat on a car makes watee bead up and drop off super easily but I don't know whether or not it would allow dew to even form on it in the first place.
@@Zadamanim I should try it out with some Mothers CMX I have just laying around and a couple pieces of some kind of mesh this weekend.
It’s crazy how little we utilize roofs in most countries/cities. They are great for collecting rain water but also solar power, and both can be done at the same time without compromising either
Most cites and countries can not harvest solar energy efficiently on a roof.
@@mangar3147 see that's why I like to do it in the basement, it also prevents damage from the wind.
also some cities don't allow it due to outdated laws
@@mangar3147 This may be true but it still a massively under utilized space, I live in an extremely sunny area and I know of 1 building with roof top solar panels. I also frequently visit the mid-west states (an entire region of the united states which gets intense sunshine for most of the year) and don't recall of seeing any solar panels outside a solar farm I drove past and small ones in national parks to run electric signs and stuff like that. if every building in sunny areas had rooftop solar we'd significantly cut out fossil fuel reliance. Obviously that alone wouldn't solve the energy or climate crisis but it's a good start.
@@jacob416 sadly solar panels are high maintenance. In solar farms, it's easy enough due to workers working for the whole day checking and maintaining the panels. For commercial use however, it's not exactly ideal. Not to mention, birds flock in urban housing or city areas, making it prime target for even more problem ranging from bird poop to nesting in the crevices of the panels. Ironically the panels can even degrade BECAUSE of the sun hitting them too hard with dem deadly laser.
Basically speaking, solar panel technology hasnt progressed far enough for it to be used by just about anyone atm. Maybe in the far future, solar panel rooftiles would be a common thing, but right now, it's not exactly feasible.
We have our water cut off in our communities quite often here in South Africa. Sometimes a few days maybe a few weeks its off. So Thank you for this video, its inspired me to give it a try ! ❤
Please do keep us informed about any progress you do! ;)
Maybe building them everywhere almost near the coast but maybe through this the water will miss at other points.

Next step is to put a barrel on the roof, then pump the water up to that barrel from the rain barrel so the gravity feed into the cabin is under higher pressure. You won't have to pump while taking your shower.
Then add dark panels to the roof to act as solar thermal collectors and run the water from the roof barrel through tubes zig-zagging through the solar collectors to warm it up so you don't have freezing showers!
You could also it a float gauge in the barrels and run a string into the house so you can see at a glance how much water you have in either barrel.
I'm an ideas kind of person but have never done anything like this, but it would be so much fun to work with you two on this stuff!
Loved the video!
instead of dark pannels, can't you just put it in dark pipes? a hose ran across the garden in the sun heats up wonderfully
@@oxybrightdark8765 yeah but it doesn't store the heat, you need an insulating layer
Sounds heavy, can't be good for your roof. Roof not the same weight rating as the floor in a room. The weight of a full plastic 55 gallon barrel on a section of your roof Will be almost 500 lbs. The top and sides of plastic barrels erode from the sun, especially now when the rays are getting more and more damaging due to the greenhouse effect

I guess in Africa temperature difference between day and night is much more so they have a better condition for water dew tower working
But it's extremely cold in antarctica so you have so much less water in the air overall. Isn't it? It would be more efficient (probably) but way less water to extract.
Correct me if I am wrong.
@@myentertainment55 What does antarctic have to do with anything? No one lives in antarctic except a small number of scientists.
@@myentertainment55 dude it would be snow at that temp
@Thoth But you need moisture in the air to start with. You tend to find high moisture content in areas that are pretty lush and rainy. Not so much in dry hot regions where it doesn't rain.
Its desert.. it means while its hot at day, its cold at night..
This got me thinking about the benefits of hydroponics! I currently work at a local hydroponic farm in Alabama, and we're able to grow the same amount of crops in a 2000 sq ft room as a 25 acre farm twice as large and twice as fast while using close to 95 percent less water (without any pesticides or bugs to kill the crops too!). I hope that this form of farming really takes off in the next few years so we can maintain our world freshwater supply for generations to come.

Aquaponics is a better option and less input required.
For ur experiment, u need more surface area at the top, aka the place of condensation. Might also help to insulate your collecting method. That way you get drain and condensation from the material that u used to collect water. See, you can even use condensation at night to collect water after hours. Just insulate the bottom and keep the moisture at the top, so u can get the most out of ur exprmnt.
This invention seems like the moisture generators that was showed in the film Star Wars when Luke's family did on Tattoine Planet.
Because nothing about this tech is new.
Also, water is no an issue in most of America. It’s basically a SoCal problem only.
Same principle yes. Luke’s grandparents were moisture farmers

@@shayraecok578 35-40 under manufacturer warranty nowadays, also recycling them is something that can be done now as well.
@Dmon ! true, what needs to be done is calculate what resources have to be used to build and maintain the ‘alternate’ energy and how long it can dependently be used. Then calculate how much energy it produces over its lifetime and decide if it’s worth it
@Dmon ! for nuclear it does depend on the style of reactor, there are many. Also a new reactor that uses spent fuel would also help things along
@Dmon ! The waste issue is why a next stage reactor is necessary, a wave form reactor could potentially used spent fuel from other reactors and reduce the waste by a significant amount. Again it depends on the style of reactor we’re talking about, this isn’t a cop out this is called a fact.
This isn’t to berate renewables, it’s like you said it’s part of the portfolio. I’m not sure your level of working knowledge of nuclear technology, so I can’t comment on that much. Calling it a pathetic cop out does suggest your knowledge base is low though.
I doubt you’ll see this but another good idea to add to your rain water system is to have a big container (like a kiddie pool) under the shower to collect that water, and the same can be done with the water you are cleaning your dishes with. Though you won’t want to use it to drink or anything like that, you can use it for water plants or rinsing a surface.
Good job for finally clicking this.
I think the dew water system thing would be effective in deserts since when it is night time it gets very cold
This is exactly how the Fremen were proposed to exist on Arrakis (Dune).
it's also alot less humid though, it would might work more consistently but not better*.
by better I mean more water per night on average*
A
@@v-2010 in the night time it actually cools down alot. And in the dawn the cold plastic, attracts the water of the air. Since warm air is more water containing than cold air this works well and creates droplets in the netting. Example for this. If it's cold and you breath into the air, your breath is warmer and therefore more water containing than the cold air, wich then creates a cloud of microscopical sized drops, that don't really have the density or size to fall. The cold air then neutralizes the "water" in the air to go back to the "agregate" of gases. (Dunno if thats written the right way, but i wanted to say, the mini water droplets get temperaturely neutralized back into the air.)
@@timojixio6032 lol it's cold ar night but still dry as dust.
With the roof system I would suggest at least a charcoal filter that way you don't have stuff from bird poo and other animal stuff in your shower and dish water
This seems like two city slickers discovering how big and scary the world actually is lmao.
Plz show off aquaponics, it’s one of the most sustainable was of creating a protein, fruit, and greens source and can feed a family depending on the size and it doesn’t have to be big

The plastic volume used for building the tower will be real challenge for the environment in future. !
Plastic itself isnt a huge issue. Things like this will likely be used a long time so the plastic used to make it won't be going into the ocean
@@deetgrogstin
Hi
I agree this plastic will be used for long time , but at the end it will be wasted and contaminate the deep earth soil and the water sources,
I think the manufacturer's should create a guidance at the early stage of designing for proper disposal after the tower is no longer operational.
@@LeadAudit4490 i think it just depends on how long it lasts. Plastic doesnt decompose so this could potentially lasts a few lifetimes ( probably gotta resemble a few times tho) and in that case it's not a real threat
The dew collector looks like the brain love child of a Wicker Man and a Nuclear cooling tower.

You can dig a hole besides the creek and the soil within the hole will filter the flowing water into the hole. It can be drinkable since its just forest creek. Make sure to cover the each time. You can probably get 20 to 100 litter of clean water depend on the size of the hole.

Also, as a side note, humid air is less dense than arid air. Because the weight of what we breathe is more dense than, say humid air with O2. The weight of H2O is lower than both Oxygen & Nitrogen in our air. In fact, i think its about a 5% difference between humid air and arid air. That means stuff can move faster thru less dense air, and slower thru more dry. H2O has less weight than both oxygen and nitrogen; aka the air we breath

Simple condense water collector: black plastic bag. dig a hole. Put a container in the hole. Cover the hole with the black bag, fix it around the edge so it doesn't fall into the hole, place a stone in the center of the bag so condense water drips into the container. Condense water forms on the underside of the bag and runs down. Read this about 30 years ago in a how to survive in the Outback book. Thankfully never needed to use it..

Wait for July. Go to Houston. Turn on an air conditioner.
Seriously, I had a gardener friend in Atlanta who owned a small house with small yard and small gardens. During the drought and water crisis that gripped the city some years ago, when there were severe restrictions on the use of city water, she was able to keep some of her most vulnerable plants alive and even retrieve extra water from the air which she could use to flush toilets, all by diverting the runoff from a large window AC unit.
She said that the situation had been so dire that restrictions had been placed even on AC condensate, but they never got round to regulating window units. I suppose that’s probably because the condensate from those units is not typically plumbed anywhere; instead just allowed to drip out of a small hose in the back.
Your video reminds me of how some of the poorest people in the world get hot (or at least quite warm) water, primitively plumbed into their homes via gravity, much the same way water towers work. During the monsoon seasons of Africa and Asia, at least in the parts where I have traveled, people catch as much natural rainwater as they possibly can. On the roofs of their houses, or else on a raised platform if the roof cannot support it, there will be two tanks, one of which is painted black, storing water that is piped into the house below. In each neighborhood, people will share and pass around a pump or two to keep those tanks full, and of course the black one soaks up the sun’s heat and provides warm water for bathing and cleaning, so they don’t need to burn so much fuel heating it.

In my state of Florida in the US it is actually illegal to put rain collection systems in your home due to the way the aquifers are replenished by rainwater. If those aquifers dry up we have really bad sink holes. But I know that dew collector would work magic!
This is a common misconception but Florida has no restrictions on water harvesting. In fact, a bunch of municipalities will give you tax breaks if you do rainwater harvesting. The temporary stop off on these systems doesn't affect aquifer replenishment.

The problem with dew collectors is the air from which the water is collected will contain air pollution… it has water and mold mildew and other microbes as well as insects that land in dog shit with more bacteria will land in the collected water and culture. When you drink it, you will get sick… not when the dew collector is new but as it gets used, and not cleaned, you will get sick when drinking it.

I’m so glad to see Kevin here. I was there when he announced from his brothers channel that he was starting CZcams and happy to see how much he’s grown.

Literally the first time I’ve ever “liked and subscribe!”d at the same time.
It sucks that collecting rainwater is actually illegal in a lot of states in America and in countries all over the world, Makes you realize how scummy the big systems are and how greedy the industry actually is!
Why is it illegal wtf
Dehumidifiers only work if there is moisture in the air, and places that have moisture in the air have rain. You will still have to clean this collected water just like commercial paltier devices.
A well would be a better idea as it can be drinkable from the source and wont be as affected by seasonal weather, and can privide more than twice a day.
The said they not using groundwater
One of the main reasons I have a vendetta against lawns
This episode has taught me I am Mitch. I think I’d rather just like melt than go in the frigid water. Unless it’s super hot out.
Guys your Netting needs to be much Finer, preferably light Colored, like White, it could be stretched much closer to the wooden frame (although not touching) I would make it so that it spirals Into the Centre to maximise air contact, it could also be stretched and fixed to plastic disks on the top and bottom to keep the mesh separated and not touching. Honestly you guys need a lot more mesh to make it work better, but it has a lot of potential.
If u use electricity to condense water vapours, then u can collect 100 L a day.
This water collection system on the roof is called a Regenrinne and Regentonne in Germany. Every single house has one. I am astonished.
In a lot of places in the u.s. collecting rainwater is illegal
21:14 The dog is standing on the water container at the back 😂
With the dew collector could you have a number of layers of the mesh inside each other to increase the yield further? Or would the restriction of air flow mean that it would no longer be effective?
You would have to But a LOT of meshes for it to hlbe ineffective bit its a drag to put a mesh over a mesh without messing it up so its easier to create another tower
@@mitjakovac278 I see thank you. It may be an inconvenience but in places where it would be an effective means of collecting water it would surely save a good amount of space to use a number of meshes rather then multiple towers. Thank you for your reply! 😊
@@ewanm8995 no problem I am always happy to share such information
czcams.com/video/5Sg1XW-hNic/video.html
I was gonna ask this, too.
Thx asapSCIENCE because I learned so much as a Grade 7 student here in the Philippines and I will share this to my classmates and I will do this on our home.
Science is my favorite subject because I believe that Science occurs every second of the world
Again, thx asapSCIENCE I learned so much. I hope you guys give more information about science and world to more people 🤗🤗🤗
Come to 11 th standard
Love the dog standing in the dew pool 20:50
I'm actually learning much more than an entire year of school
Wow I just searched up the rules in my city for rain barrels. Apparently you get a $50 reimbursement for having a rainwater barrel!
So you get payed to make one or smth?
For a second I thought it was going to read “get a $50 fine for having a rainwater barrel”, because some cities have literally done that! :(
The scream at 14:07 is too much lmaoooo
This is called living in rural new zealand, 90% of rural farms in nz have rain collection as their main source of water, only cities have a town supply
Feels good to be just off Lake Michigan. Seemingly intimate supply of cheap fresh water with a couple other great Lakes as a sea level rise saline barrier. Not to mention when I lived out in western Oregon. Cheap clean water due to daily coastal rains and the number of natural springs. But Lake Michigan for the win.
