<t>Thanks Bob for your thoughtful response. I am hesitant to agree though. The problem with the Hurricane Tower is excess heat. Condensing water vapor gives off prodigious heat. Pumping cold ocean water as a refrigerant to counter it takes a lot of energy. If a Stirling could take and use the heat i...

<t>In Hawaii a professor and his partners including a big engineering firm are working on wringing out fresh water from salt water by mimicing the natural convection inside a hurricane cloud. <br/> <br/> Their "Hurricane Tower" looks like an inverted mushroom. Saltwater in a pool at the bottom is he...
