We’ve been draining our compressor tanks since they were invented. Compress air and eventually the moisture in it reaches saturation or dew point and collects at the bottom of the tank. All atmospheric air contains some levels of moisture and that level will determine how much is collected over time. Our gas lines coming off the casing goes through a scrubber tank to remove liquids (commonly called drip gas) before going to the engines, ignore it over time and the liquids build up and eventually shut your engine down. Basically all I see is a wind driven compressor which you could duplicate with any type standard electric compressor and wind vanes large enough to turn it. And no we don’t collect the drip gas and run it in our vehicles but we do collect it and put it into our tank battery’s.

Yeah, theoretically you can make all sorts of wild eyed inventions work, in your mind. But compressors are a real world smell test. The more I thought about this gizmo, the more it diverged from reality.
