A concerted effort in seawater desalination is a good place to start.

Saltwater is plentiful ... The good news is that engineers at MIT and in China have succeeded in creating a desalination system that avoids this problem by intrinsically flushing accumulated ...

To take the salt out of saltwater, desalination technology pushes treated seawater across a semi-permeable membrane at pressure. Osmosis, the movement of molecules in liquid across such membranes ...

The desalination system ... Atik said in a promotional video about the GivePower project that the "salt water from the wells are not treated," which is why using it can lead to health issues.

The water that is not used for desalination purposes will be used to produce hydropower for between eight and 12 hours per day during peak demand periods, with fast response times. “This ...

An automated commercial pilot is already operating in one of the Middle East's largest saltwater desalination plants, and produces magnesium and calcium compounds at high-purity levels.

Desalination plants take in seawater through ... After being filtered, water undergoes a process called "reverse osmosis" in which salt water is passed through membranes using high pressure.
