In this research, painted steel surfaces were modified by vacuum plasma, and hydrophilic and hydrophobic grooves were made on them in millimeter scale. Then, by building a steam reactor, the parts were tested to extract water from the air and it was observed that modifying the surfaces increases the amount of water produced several times. Next, the optimal thickness of the paint on the steels was determined. IS - 2 PB - OICC Press KW - Extraction of water from air, Hydrophilic and Hydrophobic, Vacuum plasma EN -
