It s a befuddling equation but it s at the heart of a new solar hydropanel developed by arizona based startup zero mass water.
Source water from solar panels.
The company s source panels can be installed atop any building just.
The solar panel converts solar energy to electricity which is used to power the process that drives.
Technologies like hydropanels could keep us hydrated in a hotter drier future.
Source works by passively absorbing moisture from the air using a special humectant material.
2 how effective are source panels.
The source hydropanel is a technology that incorporates multiple patented inventions alongside proprietary trade secrets making it a one of a kind renewable water technology that uses the power of the sun to extract clean pollutant free drinking water from the air.
Source hydropanels can be installed at small residential homes on the roofs of schools and community centers and as water farms next to whole communities.
Called source this solar panel system developed by zero mass water a startup with a mission to democratize drinking water turns water vapor in the air into clean drinkable water.
Introducing source hydropanels a sustainable water technology that uses the power of the sun to extract an endless volume of clean reliable drinking water from the air.
The hydropanels use both solar power and a small battery to retrieve the water from the atmosphere.
Source is a completely off grid solar powered and self contained device that creates drinking water from sunlight and air.
See how it works can humans survive on water vapor alone.
Minerals are added to improve taste and ozone is.
Air is drawn into the unit with a fan then special hygroscopic materials absorb the water.
