This work describes the process of developing a concept for an atmospheric water harvesting device, which performs continuous and multi-cyclic operations. A review of hygroscopic materials, a description and division of ABAWH (Adsorption-Based Atmospheric Water Harvesting) systems, and a description of processes occurring in them are done on the basis of literature. A morphological matrix is formed from existing devices and conveyors, from which a solution is picked and schematically shown. A calculation of solar irradiance on an arbitrary oriented surface was performed for a summer and winter day, along with a computation of the device’s diameter for different water harvesting needs.
