Abstract

This review paper enlightens the importance of renewable resources such as water and elaborates the role of textiles to enhance the efficiency of fog water collectors. Due to water scarcity, there is a dire need of harvesting water from all of its available resources. Fog is one of those water resources. Fog harvesting is generally considered as one the most economical and facile methods in arid agricultural regions where clean and pure water necessity for drinking and farming purposes is required. The yield regarding fog harvesting method is around 1–10 L m−2 day−1 as reported in the previous literature. The limitation of the available literature for this hot issue was our motivation to provide an up to date knowledge about the parameters that are capable of enhancing the water collector’s efficiency through fog either practically or theoretically. Moreover, we highlighted the appropriate structures and designs beneficial for increasing the water collection efficiency and fog harvesting phenomenon.
