Metrics such as Unit Power Consumption (kWh/L), Specific Energy Consumption, Water Harvesting Rate, and Specific Water Production per mass of sorbent have beco

However, real-world deployment also depends on another practical factor:

The atmosphere contains approximately 12,900 km³ of water, about six times the volume of freshwater stored in rivers and freshwater lakes. This makes AWH attractive as a d
