How is the dessicant recharged after it absorbs the water?

Stated in the article. It's dried using a heat pump.

It's not quite clear where the water goes.

The desiccant pumps water out of the hot humid daytime air and pumps it into the cool humid nighttime air.

I have a desiccant based dehumidifier and the water just drips into a pan the same as any dehumidifier.

Presumably into the (outside) air.
