Full needs in water and energy supply by the natural air consumption only
Abstract.

Israel. 2.4 milliard m3 of the water annual consumption, or 80 m3 /sec, can be extracted from the air humidity, being about 15 g/m3. (1) About 1.0 m diameter convention gas centrifuges of quite common velocity about 50-100 rotation/sec. allows to concentrate the said humidity in some steps up to its condensation into fresh water, (2) then it can be patented, (3) a heat of the condensation can be utilised in electrisity, (4) then it simply and cheaply scalable as a distributed system, (5) then can be transfered technology.
Numerical estimations of the said know-how.
Israel. 2.4×10^9 m3 H2O annually = 80 m3/sec. = 80×10^6 gram/ (11 g/m3 air humidity) = 7.2×10^6 m3 air/sec. Centrifugal air separation in (3 steps x 6 min = 0.3 hours in a step = 25,000 in a year . So 7.2 × 10^6 m3 air ×3.600 sec/25,000 = 10^6 cenrifuges, or 7.2 m3 air for one step of separation. 2.4×10^9 m3 H20 × 10^6 g × (40.66 kJ/mol)/(18 g/mol)/3.600 sec. = 1.5 ×10^12 kWh × 0.3 = 500×10^9 kWh electricity as a by-product.
