Water is excreted by three routes from your body. Kidneys, skin, feces and lungs. Kidneys just can not excrete the solutes in powder form. They have to be dissolved in water. Skin can excrete lot of water in hot sunny day. May be up to one liter per hour. This water is used to keep your body cool. Feces carry some more or less water with them. That is the physical property of feces. Water loss from lungs also in inevitable. The exhaled air get saturated with water vapor due very large surface area of gaseous exchange.

How long does the alcohol take to excrete from the body?
The time depends on the amount of water you already have in your body, the amount of water you drink, and how much urine the bladder is already holding when you drink the water. If you're dehydrated and you drink water, you can be sure the body won't throw it out because it needs the water. The kidneys filter between 750mls and a liter of water every hour, so if you're hydrated ok and you drink half a liter of water, you should need to go in less than an hour.
