Think in subsystems, not a single gadget
Air handling
Move enough ambient air across the collection mechanism.
Condensation
Cool surfaces below dew point or use another moisture-capture method.
Collection
Use clean, appropriate drainage and storage materials.
Treatment
Do not equate visible clarity with drinking-water safety.
Safety first
This site does not provide a drinking-water certification for any DIY design. If water will be consumed, use appropriate treatment/testing and follow relevant public-health and local guidance.
