This past season, the ice at Staples Center came right out of the arena’s air. Or at least the water for that ice did. The Kings spent the year piloting climate control tech made by a company called BluEco Technology Group that cleans and dries air, producing water as a byproduct. That water was then used to build the rink, instead of turning to municipal water supplies.
