Underwater Systems having Co-Located Data Center and Water Desalination Subunits

摘要

Underwater systems for data center cooling and water desalination are provided. Aspects of the systems include a data center subunit and a desalination subunit that are co-located with each other at an underwater location, where the desalination subunit is configured to receive warm water output from the data center. Aspects of the invention also include methods for cooling a data center and desalinating water using underwater systems as described herein.

主权项

1. An underwater system comprising:
(a) a data center subunit comprising a water cooling subsystem configured to receive cool water and output warm water; and (b) a water desalination subunit to receive and desalinate the output warm water from the data center;
wherein the data center and water desalination subunits are co-located with each other at an underwater location from which the water cooling subsystem is configured to receive cool water.
