Abstract

This factsheet presents an active atmospheric water condensation system for greenhouse water recovery and microclimate control. By using a heat pump–cooled surface to condense water vapour from humid greenhouse air, the system recovers small volumes of high-quality distilled water for reuse while reducing excess humidity and fungal risk in seedling production.
