Recovered and Recycled Clean Water Cooling

Abstract

A condensate, precipitation and recycled water recovery system is described, for use in cooling applications such as air-cooled air conditioning and refrigeration systems. The recovered and recycled water system is a method designed to assist the air-cooled condenser in cooling the refrigerant, prior to the refrigerant cooling control system evaporator. The system can include an electronic control system, although not essential in all embodiments. In one embodiment, at least one condensate, precipitation, and recycled water recovery system is attached to the condenser of the refrigerant cooling control system. In another embodiment, multiple condensate, precipitation, and recycled water recovery systems are located on the condenser of the refrigerant cooling control system.

What is claimed is: 
     
         1 . A clean water assisted cooling system, which accumulates for use in the process a collection of refrigerant condensate water and precipitation water which is continuously recycled and replenished for reuse, comprising: a water collection tray, a water collection tank, water filter, water pumps and water supply distributors, all connected in series by a plurality of pipes; whereby the water supply distributors are positioned on the condenser of an air-cooled refrigerant cooling control system, operable in use to flow the recovered and/or recycled water though the condenser coils and/or fins of an air cooled refrigerant cooling control system. 
     
     
         2 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 1 , whereby the power supply for operation is controlled by an air contact switch relay, utilizing discharge airflow provided by the refrigerant cooling control system. 
     
     
         3 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 2 , whereby a temperature control system is electrically connected to the air contact switch relay, which monitors the ambient outside air temperature, allowing electricity to flow to the air contact switch only when pre-set ambient air temperatures are achieved, thus maximizing the efficiency of the use of the recovered and recycled water. 
     
     
         4 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 1 , whereby evaporation process condensate is collected and recycled in its process via the water collection tray positioned under the condenser of an air-cooled refrigerant cooling control system. 
     
     
         5 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 1 , whereby precipitation is collected and recycled in its process via the water collection tray positioned under the condenser of an air-cooled refrigerant cooling control system. 
     
     
         6 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 1 , whereby precipitation and evaporation process condensate are collectively recovered and recycled in its process via the water collection tray positioned under the condenser of an air-cooled refrigerant cooling control system. 
     
     
         7 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 1 , whereby the excess water flowing from the water supply distributors through the air-cooled refrigerant cooling control system condenser coils and/or fins is recycled via the water collection tray positioned under the condenser coil of an air-cooled refrigerant cooling control system. 
     
     
         8 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 1 , whereby the water collection tray and the water collection tank can be collectively positioned directly under the under the condenser coil of an air-cooled refrigerant cooling control system. 
     
     
         9 . The clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 1 , whereby the water collection tray is designed in a way to allow the air-cooled refrigerant cooling control system condenser to sit in a horizontally level position. 
     
     
         10 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claims 1 ,  4 ,  5 ,  6 , and  7 , whereby the water collection tray is designed to gravity feed the water to flow out of the tray in single or multiple directions to avoid pooling. 
     
     
         11 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 2 , whereby the power supply for the electrical components can be provided in total by renewable energy. 
     
     
         12 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 2 , whereby the power supply for the electrical components can be provided by a collection of renewable and grid energy. 
     
     
         13 . A clean water assisted cooling system, whereby the power supply provided for the electrical components is passed through an air contact switch relay, whereby the air contact switch utilizes the air flowing from the refrigerant cooling control system condenser fan, operable to provide energy to the air contact switch allowing electrical power flow. 
     
     
         14 . An air contact switch in accordance with  claim 13 , whereby the contact to allow electrical power flow can be controlled by pressure switching. 
     
     
         15 . An air contact switch in accordance with  claim 13 , whereby the contact to allow electrical power flow can be controlled by turbine electrical generation. 
     
     
         16 . A forced air contact switch in accordance with  claim 13 , whereby the contact to allow electrical power flow can be controlled by magnetic force. 
     
     
         17 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 13 , whereby the air contact switch is operable to open and close electrical power flow to the electrical components of the clean water-cooling system's electrical components. 
     
     
         18 . A clean water assisted cooling system in accordance with  claim 2 , whereby a single, or plurality of, electricity generating wind turbine(s), driven by the discharged air from the condensing process of a refrigerant cooling control system, powers the electrical components and/or relay of the clean water assisted cooling system.
