Systems and methods are disclosed for extracting freshwater from atmospheric humidity in extremely hot and humid climates and supplying freshwater to a small group of people, a building, a farm, or forestation area. The freshwater is treated to provide drinking water by disinfecting to eliminate microorganisms and filtration to remove suspended particulates from air, erosion or corrosion products, and disinfected waste. Compact units provide drinking water for individuals, passengers in cars, vans, trucks, or recreational boats, or crewmembers on a seagoing cargo ship whether from atmospheric humidity or from moisture-laden gases. Furthermore, systems are disclosed for the ample supply of freshwater with minimal treatment for small- to large-sized buildings in a manner that alleviates the heat load on buildings. Collection of freshwater from hot humid ambient air is also provided for other uses, such as irrigation and farm animal drinking. Various methods are used for condensation of water vapor suspended in the air as alternative to conventional refrigeration cycles using CFC refrigerants. Devices are disclosed using naturally occurring brackish cold water, circulation of cooling water cooled by thermoelectric cooling or thermoacoustic refrigeration as well as evaporative cooling and transpiration cooling. Water produced by the systems may flow under gravitational forces entirely or with the assistance of boasting pumps.

An apparatus for carrying out the above process is provided that includes a test circuit for generating a test pattern and for applying the test pattern to the memory array so as to test all bits within the memory array. A comparison circuit, coupled to the test circuit and adapted to couple to the memory array, compares an actual response and an expected response of the memory array to the test pattern and detects faulty and operable bits based thereon. A failed address buffer register, coupled to the comparison circuit and to the test circuit, stores an address of each addressable storage location that has a faulty bit. Sparing control logic, coupled to the failed address buffer register and adapted to couple to the memory array, reads out each address stored by the failed address buffer register and replaces each faulty bit with a redundant operable bit.
