A growing global water crisis is forcing scientists to rethink how fresh water is produced. Across the world, billions of ...

Using zero liquid discharge to increase water recovery from desalination is an emerging method to combat water scarcity, but has its own drawbacks. Climate change is making water scarcer. A promising ...

A research team led by Professor Yongwon Seo in the Graduate School of Carbon Neutrality at UNIST has unveiled a highly efficient method for desalinating seawater using hydrate-based desalination (HBD ...

The system combines solar power with a special black metal that absorbs sunlight.

A team of researchers has developed a new kind of “smart” dynamic membrane that could make desalination more viable in parts of the world that depend on it, particularly in the Middle East and North ...

Engineers are developing a cutting-edge process that can reduce energy consumption and cost of water desalination. Vanderbilt researchers are part of a team that has developed a cutting-edge method ...

A new desalination method produces drinking water from seawater without chemical additives. The solar-powered system uses specially engineered black metal to absorb sunlight. Its self-cleaning surface ...

Using zero liquid discharge to increase water recovery from desalination is an emerging method to combat water scarcity, but is expensive, energy-intensive and comes with environmental risks.
