Clean, safe water is a limited resource and access to it depends on local bodies of water. But even dry regions have some water vapor in the air. To harvest small amounts of humidity, researchers ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) Earth’s atmosphere holds over 13,000 cubic kilometers of water vapor, yet converting this vast resource into drinkable water remains an engineering challenge. One in three people ...

(Nanowerk Spotlight) When water evaporates and condenses in the atmosphere, it carries energy - the same process that drives weather patterns and can be harnessed for power generation. While power ...

Clean, safe water is a limited resource and access to it depends on local bodies of water. But even dry regions have some water vapor in the air. To harvest small amounts of humidity, researchers in ...

A simple, compact system first collects moisture from the air (left) and then releases the trapped liquid (right) when heated, which results in potable water. Clean, safe water is a limited resource ...
