Thor(No) Tech
Un sistema biomimético para la humedad interior
THOR(NO)TECH es un sistema biomimético inspirado en el lagarto diablo espinoso que recoge y almacena pasivamente la humedad del aire, convirtiendo la humedad atmosférica en un recurso utilizable para la gestión diaria de la humedad. Utiliza PHA biodegradable impreso en 3D y biocompuestos higroscópicos como alginato sódico y fibras naturales. Al funcionar sin electricidad ni productos químicos, reduce significativamente el consumo de energía y minimiza su huella ecológica.
