A device that draws water from the air in the desert
Interesting news, since the invention is not based on theoretical aspects, but has been tested in practice. Having tested in real conditions the extraction of water from the air, scientists told the World about their own development.
The principle of the apparatus is simple. Enclosed in a special MOF housing (organometallic framework), the super-porous material attracts moisture and accumulates for future use. The liquid is stored in the pores and condenses under the influence of the sun, after which it is collected by the user. The system is passive and does not require energy sources.
