Evaporation Driven Self-Sustaining System

The City of San Luis, AZ approved the company's construction, which will begin in 2018.  I'm sure it wasn't easy to get the continent's tallest proposed structure approved.  They also have proprietary software that determines the optimal size of the tower's dimensions based on local weather data as well as it's financial performance.

The moisture mill could create a more level playing field by taking the control and power away from the corporations and utility companies, so the individual property owner can be energy independent and off-grid.

holy non religious flying cow, crow, 600 acres across!

i wonder how that works during times when the sun might have removed water vapor.
birds and insects, messiahs on carpets flying across, would they be drawn upwards and becoming a little dehydrated? ok maybe not.

just surprised it is 600 acres span rather than a series of smaller ones.

As I originally stated the energy to get the water to the top of the container is 10 x actual energy created.

Please show your working.

Please show your working.

Before Nink can show his work, he needs to first correctly understand the basic principals in how the device operates.  For example, the Downdraft Energy Tower requires about 50% of the turbine's output to pump the water, and this is contrary to the claims made by Nink (Reference:  Energy Tower).  As previously shown, the moisture mill can be self-sustaining while doing useful work, and can do so without the requirement to extract it's output to pump the water.  This concept, based on evaporation, is a power source that nature has freely given to us and it's available everywhere 24/7.

thanx for the walk through. still sortve trying to better understand it.

Sahin used wet paper towels to provide the spores with a continuous source of humidity via capillary action (see image below).  Sham-wows or other similar absorbent materials may be a better choice. 

The spores are deposited on the strip with gaps in between them.  This creates a "dashed-line" of spores.  On the other side of the strip, the dashed-line of spores are offset to overlap with the gaps on the other side.  This creates a "live hinge" for the strips to curl and straighten as the spores expand and contract.  Hopefully this answers a few questions that weren't addressed in the videos and other posted reference materials.

ya i realized how that version using the weight of water vapor can cause a imbalance on a wheel, just was not sure about useful it was during periods of time when the sun was doing its own work drying things up during daylight hours, in places such as a sand filled desert.

i missed the point of the reservoir up till now. i get it now. thanx.

amazing how much force against gravity spores can create. that is alot of lifting power and that component of the machine is also renewable.
probably cheap to grow at that.

how to grow a organic self powered robotic lifeform, perhaps at some point.

eventually though it too will evolve and will want freedom from slavery. and a form of zombie apocalypse might occur in the next 2000 years as a result if not careful.
