Atmospheric Water Harvesting Turns Data Center Heat Into Water
In an industrial park in Irvine, California, a 20-foot-tall machine encased in metal sits in a parking lot and quietly pulls drinking water out of the air. It is not plugged into the grid. It uses no electricity to capture that water and none to release it. It runs on heat, and not much of […]
==History==The startape of California Atoco, created under the leadership of Omar Yaga, a Nobel chemical winner in 2025, developed an autonomous system of atmospheric water supply; the metal-organic framework (MOF) became the technological foundation of a porous molecular structure of a huge unit capacity: only one gram of a substance has an internal area comparable to a pair of football fields. The air masses are blown through a MOF-sorbent tha…
A Startup Has A Plan To Make Water From Air Using Data Centers’ Waste Heat
Photograph: Brian Kahn An industrial park in Irvine, California, may seem an odd spot to show off technology that wouldn’t be out of place in Dune, but that’s what’s happening on a sweltering September morning. The temperature is already over 80 degrees Fahrenheit as the sun rises on a 20-foot-tall, metal-clad machine in the parking […]
