    Generator system enriched with ozone and ionized air for crops in arid areas.
    Object of the invention.
    The object of the present invention is an ozone-enriched water generating system (03) and ionized air, for crops in arid areas.
    This system has characteristics aimed at obtaining water by compressing the air in the environment and condensing the moisture contained in it.
    The water generating system is supplied with photovoltaic energy and is completely autonomous, turns on and off according to weather conditions and is specially designed for arid areas.
    The system is designed for drip irrigation technique, especially suitable for arid areas, where there is a high degree of evaporation and high temperatures.
    Through agroclimatic sensors, the agroclimatic conditions that are irrigation, plant, soil and microclimate are monitored and according to the processed information adjustments are made in the irrigation plan.
    The information collected by the sensors, if necessary, is transmitted by means of a communications module and a wireless communication system to a remote exchange.
    The communications module also allows real-time alerting of
    any type of breakdown in the system, so that the farmer is informed and makes the necessary corrections to guarantee the correct functioning of the system without causing damage to the crops.
    The communications module (machine to machine) allows the irrigation programs to be updated according to the type of crop. Field of application of the invention.
    This invention is applicable in crops and, especially, in arid zone crops. State of the art
    In most countries, the agricultural sector is the main consumer of water.
    Rainwater is the main source of supply in agriculture, which generally focuses exclusively on surface and groundwater. Agriculture accounts for 70% of all water use worldwide, up to 95% in several developing countries.
    Water scarcity in arid areas is a global problem, so it is necessary to evaluate options for obtaining water by unconventional methods. The aim of this invention is precisely to allow a source of water supply for cultivation by collecting water by condensation of water vapor from the atmosphere, and technological means.
    Rainwater in arid areas is limited and depends on atmospheric factors that are not controlled by man.
    The fact that condensation is a natural process, the so-called dew, causes it to be very useful to get water: we can find many structures created with the sole purpose of getting water from
    condensation, as in the case of the spray tank or a strainer to collect moisture from the air. Description of the invention
    The present invention makes it possible to supply arid areas with water that to date are not suitable for cultivation and transform them into cultivation areas with reasonable costs, using non-polluting natural resources such as air spray and the use of renewable energy, for example Photovoltaic
    It is a system capable of obtaining water from the environment in reasonable quantities to be able to exercise a sustainable and profitable agriculture in arid areas.
    Atmospheric air is a colorless, odorless and tasteless gas that consists of a mixture of gases, mainly nitrogen and oxygen. Some of the main air pollutants are naturally suspended in the air, such as: water vapor and solid particles (dust, sand, soot and crystals of different salts).
    The condensation process usually takes place when a gas is cooled to its dew point; However, this point can also be reached by varying the air pressure, this is the technique used.
    Air being a mixture, its components can be separated into different processes.
    Nitrogen and oxygen are stable, but the concentration of water vapor in the air varies greatly depending on the pressure, temperature and ambient humidity.
    The amount of condensed water will be higher with lower temperatures and higher pressures, for this reason to make condensation more effective
    of water, we resort to the pressure dew point, which together with adequate cooling provides a greater amount of condensed water.
    To achieve this condensation performance, the system of the invention comprises a plurality of ozone irrigation and negative ionization devices preferably connected wirelessly to a remote management and control center.
    Said irrigation devices comprise: an air compressor that takes filtered air from the atmosphere and puts it under pressure in a condensation tank with cooling means that keep it at a predetermined temperature, so that the compressed air under pressure is conducted below the dew point, transforming at least part of the water vapor contained in it a part into liquid condensed water; an ozone generator, which injects ozone into the water in a precalculated and allowed proportion; an accumulation tank of ozonized water; and some irrigation pipes that transport the ozonized water to the roots of the plants.
    Most plant diseases occur by contagion. Ozone destroys all microorganisms that cause plant diseases, both by direct action in the irrigation water, and by the amount of oxygen it gives off. Ozonized irrigation protects against infection; It even destroys bacteria, viruses and parasitic cysts that are difficult to fight by other procedures that also involve the use of chemicals sometimes harmful to human consumption and always to the environment. Ozone (03) is a product of its own nature, non-polluting, and taking into account the climate unfavorable to the crop (arid climate, high temperatures during the day and low at night, etc.) we provide ozone to the roots to strengthen and promote the growth of cultivated plants.
    In an embodiment of the invention, the different components of the devices as well as the autonomous power supply means, the communication means, and the control means thereof, are mounted to a
    high height above the corresponding reservoir for accumulation of irrigation water.
    In an embodiment of the invention, said water accumulation tank is defined in a mast that has a lower metal base to provide adequate stability and support to the device as a whole.
    The accumulation tank has around, in a lower area of the same, several jagged sockets for the coupling of different drip tubes depending on the irrigation to be performed, depending on a series of factors; for example: the characteristics of the crop to be cultivated, the amount of liters / hour to be supplied, the water pressure, etc.
    Water, by pressure and gravity, follows the course of the drip tubes to perform the function of irrigation by means of the membranes of the chosen irrigation tubes.
    Drip irrigation, which is used in this system, is also known under the name "drop by drop irrigation"; It is an irrigation method used in arid areas because it allows the optimal use of water and substrates.
    The water applied by this method of irrigation infiltrates the roots of the crops directly irrigating the area of influence of the roots through a system of pipes and emitters (drippers).
    Drip irrigation is an effective and relevant means of providing water to the plant, either in line crops (most horticultural crops) or in isolated plants (trees) (vergeles). This irrigation system has several advantages from the agronomic, technical and economic points of view, derived from a more efficient use of water. It allows to use small water flows adapted to the needs of the plant.
    The use of the drip technique entails a significant reduction in water needs by making more efficient use thanks to the location of small water outlets, where plants need them most. There is no talk of a reduction in the transpiration of the crop, since the amount of water transpired (transpiration efficiency) is a physiological characteristic of the species.
    This system allows to automate the irrigation system with absolute autonomy and with the consequent savings in labor and energy savings; In addition, it allows to program the irrigation according to the meteorological conditions and the quantities of water necessary due to the type of crop, for each crop (plant) there is a specific irrigation program.
    The autonomous power supply means comprise: a photovoltaic plate disposed on the upper end of the accumulation tank; a battery and a charge controller, which monitors the charge and extends the life of the battery.
    The battery provides autonomy to the system especially at night and at dawn, which are the hours with the highest humidity in the atmosphere.
    The control means, which allow to provide complete autonomy and synchronize the entire system, comprise a central processing unit (CPU) equipped with a specific irrigation program adapted to the type of crop and a series of sensors that provide information on different parameters of operation; said CPU performing different functions such as:
    Turn on / off the air inlet compressor.
    Turn the cooling unit on / off.
    Measure and control the temperature of the refrigeration unit to avoid
    the water freezes, correcting its temperature if necessary.
    Measure the temperature inside the condensation tank and if it is
    necessary to make temperature corrections of the unit
    cooling to prevent water from freezing; there is a double control of the
    cooling temperature to prevent water freezing. Check by means of a level sensor that the water does not overflow in the accumulation tank of ozonized irrigation water. If the control unit overflows, turn off the equipment. Turning on / off the water ozonation unit. On / off of ion generators. Check the relative humidity by means of a sensor to turn the system on or off, this function allows the system to be completely autonomous (on and off), effective in saving energy. Turning on / off the condensing unit fan. Check the ambient temperature by means of the temperature sensor to compensate for the cooling process that depends on the outside ambient temperature. Control the communications module and, if necessary, transmit and receive information from the receiving exchange. Perform soil moisture readings through the humidity sensor and, if necessary, make corrections to the irrigation plan according to weather conditions and soil moisture. Turn on and off the fans of the ionizers. Check the water supply through the irrigation valve.
    With the mentioned characteristics, the system is completely autonomous, it is put into operation due to certain levels of relative humidity and environmental temperature and irrigation plan according to the type of crop.
    The irrigation plan is updated from the remote central through the communications module, for example an M2M module, depending on the type of crop, adapting the irrigation plan to the crop.
    The system is made of materials resistant to the extreme environments of arid areas (temperatures and extreme solar radiation).
    Each of the devices comprises three different parts, detachable separately to facilitate transport, installation and maintenance; specifically: the photovoltaic plate, the functional components of the device, and the accumulation tank of ozonized irrigation water.
    Like all equipment that works in extreme areas, periodic maintenance is necessary, especially for the subject of filters.
    This system uses anions in the air to promote greater growth of plants, increase flora and fruits, on this subject there are studies that reduce it.
    The molecules resulting from negative ionization in the atmosphere complement the process of photosynthesis, as well as plant respiration and the absorption of water and minerals from the soil. In addition, they help mitigate infestation by unwanted herbivores, such as aphids, mites and ants. In addition, immune systems to improve appear in treated plants. Description of the figures.
    To complement the description that is being made and in order to help a better understanding of the characteristics of the invention, a set of drawings is attached as an integral part of said description, where illustrative and non-limiting nature has been represented. next:
    Figure 1.- Shows a schematic view of an embodiment of the ozone-enriched water generating system and ionized air for crops in arid areas, object of the invention, in which three irrigation devices connected wirelessly to a remote central control and management.
    Figure 2.-Schematically shows the remote control and management center, and the different elements of one of the irrigation devices. Preferred embodiment of the invention.
    As can be seen in Figure 1, the system object of the invention comprises a series of autonomous irrigation devices (O), which, as will be discussed below, has adequate means for wireless connection with a remote center ( CR) management and control.
    As shown in Figure 2, each of the devices (O) comprises an ambient air inlet (1) provided with a filter (2) for the retention of possible solid particles (dust, sand, soot and crystals of different salts) contained therein. The filtered air is absorbed by the compressor (3) that supplies the compressed air at a given pressure to a condensation tank (6) cooled below the pressure dew point, at a predetermined temperature, in this example of embodiment between 3 ° C and 5 ° C., So that the water vapor contained in the compressed air is condensed and transformed into water.
    In this example, the cooling of the condensation tank (6), which is covered by a thermal insulator (11), in this case based on polyurethane, is carried out by means of a refrigerating unit comprising: an evaporator (5) housed in said condensation tank (6), a compressor (8), thermostat (7), a condenser (9), a fan (10) and a temperature sensor (4) located inside the condensation tank (6) to monitor the temperature of the tank and that there is no freezing of water inside.
    The condensed water inside the condensation tank (6) is pressurized to the ozone generator (12), to enrich the water.
    The devices (O) comprise between the condensation tank (6) and the accumulation tank (14) a pressure regulator (13) with a smaller particle retention filter that was not removed by the first filter (2 ).
    By means of pressure and gravity the condensed and ozonized water is introduced into an accumulation tank, for distribution by means of drip pipes to the crops.
    In the example of embodiment shown, the accumulation tank (14) of the ozonated water is defined in a mast that has a lower base
    (17) metal stabilization and clamping of the device assembly.
    The accumulation tank (14) has an opening and closing valve (29) for the control of the amount of water with which we irrigate the crops according to the specific program adapted to the type of crop.
    The accumulation tank (14) in its lower part has sockets (15) for the connection of drip irrigation pipes (16) and a metal base (17) that stabilizes the corresponding device (O).
    The device (O) additionally comprises an ambient humidity sensor (19) and an ambient temperature sensor (20); anion generators (21) and a fan (18) for dispersion of the anions for air ionization in the culture zone.
    The power supply means of the devices (O) comprise an electric power supply battery (24), especially during the night and dawn, at intervals that the light is not sufficient to supply the device with solar energy and a plate Photovoltaic (22) connected to a charge controller (23) that protects the battery (24) from voltage rises and falls.
    The water accumulation tank (14), defined on the mast, has a water level sensor (26) that causes, if the water tank is filled, that the remote center (CR) sends a stop order to control means of the device (O) comprising a central processing unit -CPU- (25).
    The devices (D) also comprise an M2M wireless communication module (27) with the remote control and management center (CR), for the real-time transmission of data and alarms, and the reception of remote updates of the software and the Irrigation plan programming for each crop.
    The transmission and reception is done through a GSM / GPRS wireless communication system.
    The remote center (CR) works on any platform, computer, tablet or mobile, located in any geographical location, providing the farmer with updated and real-time information of all devices (D) without the need to be in a specific location .
    The CPU (25) has the following functions:
    Turn on / off the air inlet compressor (3). Turn the cooling unit on / off. Measure and control the thermostat (7) of the refrigeration unit to prevent water from freezing, correcting its temperature if necessary. Measure the temperature inside the condensation tank (6) and, if necessary, make temperature corrections of the refrigeration unit to prevent water from freezing; It can be seen that there is a double control of the cooling temperature to avoid freezing of water and, if necessary, make appropriate corrections. Turn on / off the ion generators (21). By means of a sensor (26) it is verified that the water does not overflow in the accumulation tank (14) located in the mast. If the control unit overflows, turn off the equipment. Turning on / off the ozone generator (12). Check by means of the sensor (19) that the ambient humidity and, according to the humidity measurements, turn the system on or off; This function makes the system completely autonomous (on and off),
    effective in saving electricity.Turning on / off the condensing unit fan for yourcooling (10)Check the ambient temperature by means of the temperature sensor
    5 (20) to compensate for the cooling process that depends on the air temperature at the inlet. Check, by means of a sensor (28), the humidity of the soil close to the roots of the crop. Check the communication module M2M (27) and, in case of failure,
    10 transmit an alert signal to the remote central / farmer. Turn on and off the air dispersion fans (18) of the anions, generating a "cloud" of anions over the diameter of the crops.
