Researchers from Australia and China have designed a smart spongy device capable of capturing water from thin air and ...

A team of engineers from Australia and China has developed an innovative, sponge-like device that can capture water directly from the air and release it into a cup, powered entirely by sunlight.

The latter also helps the water release from the material. The device itself is pretty simple: when the cup's lid is open to the air, the WLG-15 material absorbs moisture from the atmosphere.

In addition, Aquaria was named one of Time magazine’s Best Inventions of 2024 after the startup announced a $26 million ...

They work on much the same principle as a modern air conditioner ... Data on expected water yields in different environmental conditions for a Tsuanmi 500 device. Note that lower temperature ...

The water-from-air device remained effective across a broad range of humidity levels (30 -- 90%) and temperatures (5 -- 55 degrees Celsius). Senior researcher Dr Derek Hao, from RMIT University in ...

Engineers from Australia and China have invented a sponge-like device that captures water from thin air and then releases it in a cup using the sun’s energy, even in low humidity where other ...
