(KERO) — You may have questions about the "desalination" process and how it works. A large part of how the process works involves what's called "reverse osmosis." The article "History of Water Filters ...

Flash evaporation represents a rapid phase change phenomenon whereby a superheated liquid is exposed to a sudden drop in pressure, resulting in nearly instantaneous vapour formation. In the realm of ...

One of the biggest global challenges facing future generations will be providing access to clean water for daily use. For some populations, the issue is lack of access, drought, or water shortages, ...

With freshwater becoming an ever scarcer resource, desalination of ocean water is increasingly employed to bridge the gap between supply and demand.. However, desalination is energy-intensive, often ...

If the climate crisis is coming, the water crisis is already here. As rice fields were fallowed in California, Lake Mead water levels almost sunk so low that Hoover Dam could no longer generate power, ...

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 ...

Desalination processes for the production of freshwater are of the utmost importance for many nations. As regions such as California face increasing challenges with depletion of freshwater and drought ...

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 ...

A LONG-ANTICIPATED DESALINATION PLANT that will convert the mixture of salt and fresh water known as brackish water from the ...

“By combining La0.7Sr0.3MnO3 with this innovative design, an impressive solar evaporation rate of 3.40 kg m⁻2 h⁻¹ under one sun is achieved, while ensuring strong antifouling capabilities in complex ...
