Abstract

Non-potable water building systems have the potential to significantly reduce water consumption, aiding in the preservation of water resources used in urban supply. Among the alternative sources of non-potable water use in buildings, clear waters stand out due to their considerable quality. Condensate water from air conditioning is a kind of clear water that is typically discarded into the sewage. Little is known about the applicability of building systems for using condensate water from air conditioning in buildings - especially within the Brazilian context. To assess the potential for reducing potable water consumption and consequently evaluate the feasibility of implementing air conditioning condensate recovery systems, it is crucial to determine the quantity of available air conditioning condensate. Therefore, this work aims to identify, through a systematic review, the models for predicting the supply of condensed water in air conditioning systems and analyze methods and variables adopted to investigate their applicability within the Brazilian climate context.
