The invention relates to a method for reclaiming an evaporated liquid from an air stream, such as can be used for extracting drinking water from ambient air, the evaporated liquid is transferred from a first quantity of air into a second quantity of air, wherein the second quantity of air is smaller than the first quantity of air. The evaporated liquid from a first quantity of air is sorbed in a sorption agent, and then desorbed in a second, smaller quantity of air. The specified dew point temperature of the second quantity of air is greater than an exterior temperature under typical operating conditions. A device for carrying out the previously described method for obtaining drinking water from ambient air, wherein the evaporated liquid is sorbed in an sorption agent and then desorbed, comprises a container (9) having a plurality of rotationally supported chambers filled with the sorption agent and permeable by an air flow. The container (9) has circularly disposed, rotationally supported chambers comprising inflow openings and outflow openings disposed at a distance for an air flow. |
