Druups
Reducing water footprints through airborne water recovery
How does it work?
Moisture absorption based on liquid desiccant technology.
Drupps is one of the few that boasts the ability to produce large enough volumes of water to serve the industrial sector.
This thechonology generates no waste exept dried air and destilled pure water. There is no brine or sludge in need of disposal that generate extra costs and downtime. The system does not contain any environmentally hazardous marerials.
Why is it needed?
Climate change affects rainfall patterns, making previous levels of water extraction unsustainable. By replacing some of your water use with atmospheric water local water levels can be allowed to rebound faster.
How does it improve life?
Airborne water is a great untapped potential for sustainable water. Druups enable reduction of water footprints with scalable steam-to-water systems
