APPARATUS FOR ABSORBING PRECIPITATION WATER AND FOR WATER EVAPORATION

The invention relates to an apparatus (10) for absorbing precipitation water from rain events, especially from driving rain events, and for water discharge by evaporation, wherein at least one textile element (12) for absorbing water from rainwater drops and/or for discharging water by evaporation is provided, wherein the textile element (12) is designed as or embodies a three-dimensional textile structure (13), with a first, water-permeable layer (14) and a second, water- guiding layer (16), wherein these layers (14, 16) are connected to one another by means of water-guiding connecting threads (18), wherein the textile element (12) is preferably fluidically connected via a water discharge conduit (20) to a water collecting device (24) and/or via a water supply conduit (22) to a water supply device (26, 67). The invention relates also to a facade system (100) for separating a building interior (inside) I from an exterior space (outside) 0 comprising such apparatus (10) is specified, wherein the facade system (100) is optionally constructed in one or more layers (104, 106, 108, 110) and/or modularly, with or without at least one fluid- flow-through layer (104, 108) with or without an insulation layer (106) with or without an inner layer (110), wherein these components of the facade system (100) and/or the holding device and/or the frame profile (34, 34') of the apparatus (10) are preferably attached of attachable to a modular profile system (102, 102').
