Harvesting Namib Desert Fog With High Voltage

A hobbyist project called Plasma Channel field-tested its high-voltage electrostatic fog/water harvesting prototype in the Namib desert alongside the University of Namibia, following earlier lab success. The team faced elusive fog conditions and found that salt-laden coastal air corroded the high-voltage electronics even several kilometers inland. Although the device worked under the right conditions, it needs a redesign before its next test in the Atacama desert.
