Researchers strike the “Achilles Heel” of desalination
New technology cuts chemical and energy use of removing salt from seawater. It could save millions of dollars, making ...
reverse osmosis desalination pumps that run simultaneously to ensure continuous operation. When developing solar-powered desalination projects, pinning down the point at which the technology and ...
Researchers have made an exciting breakthrough to improve desalination technology by eliminating “dead zones” in fluid flow.
As of 2022, about 26 billion gallons (100 billion liters) of water were produced by desalination every day. But reverse osmosis is energy intensive, requiring strong pumps to force water molecules ...
“Most reverse osmosis membranes don’t remove very ... “Our device reduces the chemical and energy demands of seawater desalination, significantly enhancing environmental sustainability and cutting ...
