DESIGN BY WHY

The thermodynamic cycle

Vapour has been captured from the atmosphere thanks to biopolymer. Steam is condensed through low-temperature heat and energy recovery inside the system. The result is pure distilled water or, with the mineralization, drinking water

The adsorbent biopolymer

Aquaseek is flexible and scalable as higher efficiency and lower energy consumption allows smaller sizes
