Cambridge: Scientists have developed a device that can extract saliva from the air using a fin-like system.
This technology could help meet the demand for clean water by extracting trillions of liters of water from the Earth’s atmosphere.
A team of researchers from the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT), the University of Tennessee, and the George Institute of Technology has developed a low-cost, compact system that uses suction-based Atmospheric Water Harvesting (SAWH) for water harvesting. on the suction fin.
The researchers explained the details of the technology, noting that two-thirds of the world’s population suffers from water scarcity. It is estimated that by 2030, 40 percent of the world’s annual water demand will be unmet, creating more challenges for public health, agriculture, and agriculture.
Researchers estimate that the Earth’s atmosphere contains 13,000 trillion liters of fresh water, which cannot be relied upon for existing liquid water supplies. Atmospheric water harvesting based on suction can collect potable water even in very dry conditions, where conventional atmospheric water harvesting methods are not possible.
