Sustainable Development Goal 6 from the United Nations aims to provide global access to safe and affordable drinking water. Solar-powered desalination can help achieve this, by using sunlight to ...
Solar steam generation and desalination technologies represent a crucial frontier in addressing global freshwater scarcity and environmental sustainability. By harnessing solar energy to generate ...
Driven by osmotic pressure, thermodynamic constraints, and system losses, desalination remains an energy-intensive process ...
What if solving three of the world’s most pressing challenges, water scarcity, energy demand, and environmental sustainability, could be achieved with a single, innovative system? Imagine a technology ...
Fresh water we can use for drinking or agriculture is only about 3 percent of the global water supply, and nearly 70 percent of that is trapped in glaciers and ice caps. So far, that was enough to ...
Scientists have developed a novel technology to further advance water desalination — the process of removing salt from seawater — potentially offering a large-scale solution for an imperiled ...
UK researchers have proposed the use of photovoltaic-thermal energy for desalination purposes, via an approach based on synergistic electro-thermal coupling mechanisms. They have found that some ...
Researchers at MIT have created a solar-powered device that can make seawater drinkable. The team says the device can remove the salt from seawater for less than the cost of US tap water. This process ...
Jon Bessette sits atop a trailer housing the electrodialysis desalination system at the Brackish Groundwater National Research Facility (BGNDRF) in Alamogordo, New Mexico. The system is connected to ...
In this opinion piece, Heriot-Watt University Dubai’s Manjula Nair explores how energy-efficient reverse osmosis can support ...
Scientists at the Ulsan National Institute of Science and Technology (UNIST) in Korea have ...
(Nanowerk News) Scientists from the National Institute of Education/Nanyang Technological University of Singapore developed a method for converting fruit wastes such as coconut husks, orange peels, ...
