High Tech Jacket Prototype Pulls Drinking Water From Thin Air – Up to 1.5 Pints Per Day
Reported byGood News Network ↗·Sourced by Goodlede
Engineers at University of Texas have developed a high-tech jacket using advanced fabric fibers that can extract up to 1.5 pints of drinkable water per day from air, with detachable harvesting units that are heated to produce potable water.
This is a prototype; real-world performance in varied climates and commercialization timelines remain to be demonstrated.
