AirJoule technology improves energy efficiency of HVAC systems

Heating, Ventilation, and Air Conditioning

Superior Latent Heat Removal

Traditional air conditioners must remove both latent heat (heat contained in water vapor) and sensible heat (temperature of the air) from ambient air.

Since the invention of modern air conditioning in 1902, this has been done by passing air over an evaporator coil that has been chilled with either cold water or a chemical refrigerant. This lowers the temperature of the air below the dew point, and water vapor condenses into liquid form.

In a humid environment, the removal of humidity can account for 60% of the energy requirements of the air conditioning system. By utilizing AirJoule® to harvest the water vapor from the air, power consumption can be reduced by up to 75%.

How AirJoule® works

AirJoule® utilizes advanced sorbents and cutting-edge engineered systems to extract pure, PFAS free, distilled water from the air.

AirJoule works using two chambers fitted with MOF. The open chamber adsorps water while the closed chamber desorps it. Humid air in results in conditioned air, water and cooling outputs.
