Because it’s not using hot steam, but vapor, it’s more like sweating.
The heat exchangers are sprayed with misted water, which evaporates and takes away heat. But the resulting vapor is still only slightly above ambient temperature and can’t be reasonably condensated.
It also generates waste water that has to be sent to a treatment plant they can’t dump it back into the environment because it’s so concentrated with minerals
just… use rain water and condensation pipes. Idk why that would be an issue at all
