A prototype successfully pulled liters of water from dry air — a promising advancement as water scarcity becomes an increasing global problemScientists have come up with a machine that, in layman's terms, can effectively turn air into water — by pulling moisture from the environment, even in dry conditions.
Examples of similar engineering include fog harvesters and water harvesters, which collect moisture from the air. The result of the study could be a “reliable and effective source of potable water production that can be integrated into various existing applications, such as in buildings, industrial plants, and transportation with suitable high-density waste heat." to stay up-to-date on the best of what PEOPLE has to offer, from celebrity news to compelling human interest stories.
