Don't worry about lack of water even in the desert with this device

Did you know, in the air there is a huge amount of water that we can absolutely get with this "top notch" device?

Air humidity

Water is an essential need of people.(Illustration).

The main source of water in the air is from oceans and seas (70% of the Earth's surface area).

On the other hand, the wind (formed by the Earth's rotation and pressure) will evaporate water vapor from the oceans and oceans everywhere.

And because we have water molecules in the air, we have air humidity to describe this amount of water. Higher humidity means larger water content.

If the humidity is zero, then we have the term air dry , but in fact, whether in the desert or the driest place, the air still has a certain humidity.

We are abusing fresh water.(Illustration).

Therefore, in fact there is no dry air state (this is only the ideal state).

Not only do microbes get water to grow, moisture also affects us a lot (both physically and mentally). Water, air . are the first conditions that make up today's living environment.

It is miserable if our bodies are not supplied with enough water or lack of fresh water for living, right!

Lack of water in Vietnam

Lack of water is a painful problem in many places.(Illustration).

In our country, lack of clean water and fresh water is an extremely painful problem, especially in big cities like Ho Chi Minh City or Hanoi.

The Mekong Delta, South Central Coast, Central Highlands and Southeast regions face drought and saline intrusion.

In the capital, Hanoi, people have to go to heaven because the water cutting schedule "is like squeezing lemon".

According to the warning of 500 scientists around the world at the Conference on Water Resources (taking place in Germany), by 2050 half of the population will live in a shortage of fresh water.

But around us there is a lot of water in the air .

Water shortage in the world.(Illustration).

Fortunately, with a casual mistake, scientists at the Pacific Northwest National Laboratory (PNNL) have found a way to get water from . air.

Scientists unknowingly created carbon-rich nanorods that can absorb water, although that is not the purpose of this study. It seems like this is a failure, by looking at another problem, this is a success.

Carbon-rich nanorods can "save" humanity from water shortages.

The author of this material - David Lao, research at PNNL said:

"Our unusual material acts like a sponge, it contracts itself partially before it is fully saturated with water."

Clean water is a global problem.(Illustration).

"Now that we have overcome the initial shock of this unforeseen behavior, we are imagining many ways to exploit this to improve the quality of our lives , " co-operates. author David Heldebrant said.

The researchers also realized the potential for their accidental discovery in the future with the construction of a system to recover moisture from the air in a desert.

Results are published in Nature Nanotechnology.
