How It Works
Extracting Water from Dry Air
in 4 Simple Steps
step 1
Absorb – Capturing Water from the Air
Fresh, filtered air is drawn into the system, where it meets our liquid desiccant. This material naturally attracts and binds water molecules — even in dry climates — saving the high energy cost of cooling the whole air mass.
The water-rich desiccant then flows to the generator for extraction.

step 3
Produce - Efficiently Creating Pure Water
The water vapor is cooled and condensed into pure liquid water.
By avoiding the need to chill large volumes of air, our process uses up to 65% less energy than legacy AWG systems.

Desiccant - a substance that absorbs moisture from its surroundings. H2OLL's liquid desiccant is completely inert, and 10x more salty than seawater. It acts as a physical barrier and sterilizer keeping biological and chemical contaminants from entering the produced water.
step 2
Regenerate – Releasing and Recharging
Inside the generator, the desiccant enters a controlled vacuum environment, releasing its captured moisture as water vapor in a process called desorption. This creates a micro-climate with nearly 100% humidity.
The desiccant is instantly regenerated and ready to absorb again, enabling continuous cyclical operation.

step 4
Mineralize, Monitor & Serve – Healthy, Great-Tasting Water
The pure water passes through natural limestone, enriching it with calcium, stabilizing it and enhancing its taste.
As it is dispensed, a UV-LED treatment ensures the highest level of safety — delivering fresh, healthy water, instantly.
