Abstract (en)

[origin: WO2017100955A2] The invention relates to an air humidifier device (10) comprising a hydrophobic microporous membrane (1) as a separator between the water and the air to be humidified, wherein the volumetric flow of water over time is set to be greater by factor X than the volumetric flow of steam. This allows air to be humidified with water at a low temperature, without disruption.
