Can data centres produce drinking water?

In the last few years, they successfully built technology that converts air to drinking water, producing 5,000 litres of water a day

Data centres of the future might just become a source of clean drinking water for your homes. That’s the future that Uravu Labs, a Bangalore-based climate technology startup is working towards. In the last few years, they successfully built technology that converts air to drinking water, producing 5,000 litres of water a day. Now they are developing a plug-in module that they can embed into data centres to utilise waste heat and create more water, while cooling their servers.

If we extract water from air, it is replenished within 8-9 days. It’s a massive potential for a planet which is fast coming under water stress thanks to the climate crisis. (Bloomberg)
