Building and Using a Blood Purifier in Dune Awakening

In **Dune: Awakening**, the Blood Purifier is an essential early-game structure for converting blood into water. Below, we break down how to acquire, build, and optimize it.

Unlocking the Blood Purifier

Research Path: Navigate to the Status Menu → Research Tab. The Blood Purifier blueprint is located in early tiers and requires no rare components to unlock.
Essential Prerequisites: Ensure you’ve unlocked complementary tools (specifics not listed in source) for the purifier to function.

Construction Guide

Materials Needed: Gather basic metal parts, Plastcrete, and wiring from early-game zones.
Placement: Build it at your base via the crafting menu once unlocked.
Pro Tip: Construct **multiple purifiers**—processing blood into water is time-consuming, and parallel units speed up production.

Using the Blood Purifier

Harvest Blood Sacks from enemies using a Blood Extractor.
Insert sacks into the purifier to start conversion.
Collect water directly or store it in Literjons for later use.

The device operates automatically—no fuel required.

Why Prioritize This Early?

Water directly impacts your health bar. Dehydration reduces max health, making survival harder. Reliable water access avoids scavenging risks.

Efficiency Tips

Combo Tools:
- Stillsuit: Slows water depletion.
