About Drupps Atmo
Tapping the atmosphere
Waste steam coming out of chimneys holds a lot of water and energy. Drupps Atmos recycles its latent and sensible energy, generating both steam water and additional atmospheric water. In effect, a water recovery of up to 180%.
This is made possible by Absium, a hygroscopic liquid developed by Drupps that is able to capture, liquefy, and release airborne water from an airstream below 100% relative humidity.
Drupps Atmo system
Module types included in Atmo
-
Absium
Absium is a hygroscopic liquid, with an ability to attract airborne water molecules
-
The Absorber
The Absorber is an air-processing module for absorption of airborne water
-
The Evaporator
The Evaporator is a distiller that evaporates water in vacuum air pressure
-
The Endstep
As an option, we offer an endstep module for treatment of produced water
-
Drupps Cloud
Drupps Cloud is a service that helps monitor and control system performance
The System
Modular setup
Waste steam from the production is condensed into pure water, releasing heat that is recycled.
In a parallell process, atmospheric water from above the plant is absorbed by Absium and transfered to an evaporator which is semi-powered by the recycled heat. The absorbed water is extracted through distillation.
In total, water production can reach 180% of your potato water with an opex at €3/m³.
Potato chips production is a perfect market fit for Drupps Atmo
