interestingengineering - US’ new method extracts 14 liters drinking water from thin air daily using food scraps

Dans Star Wars il y a les fermes à "Vaporateur d'Humidité" pour récolter de l'eau sur une planète désertique. Avec cette découverte on s'en rapproche !
Je cite:

Researchers at the University of Texas at Austin have developed a new method that can extract nearly four gallons of clean drinking water directly from the air by using just a single kilogram of everyday biomass, such as food scraps and seashells.

En gros 14-15 litres d'eau buvable par jour à partir d'un kilo d'hydrogel (molecularly functionalized biomass hydrogels).
