Koko: MIT Does Water Desalination
Simple, solar-powered water desalination System achieves new level of efficiency in harnessing sunlight to make fresh potable water from seawater.
Yoda: Water Desalination Breakthrough
Desalination Breakthrough: Saving the Sea from Salt A chemist finds a way to cut supersalty discharge and CO2 as the Middle East relies ever more on seawater desalination Benyahia has simplified the process in part by aiming for sodium bicarbonate (baking soda) rather than sodium carbonate, thus reducing the needed chemical conversion steps to just …
Sepp Hasslberger: Water Desalination with Shock Waves
A new, less complicated method of purifying water of salt and contaminants… could become very useful. Research team invents efficient shockwave-based process for desalination of water Now a team at MIT has come up with an innovative approach that, unlike most traditional desalination systems, does not separate ions or water molecules with filters, which can …

Reflections on Open Source Water Desalination
SHORT URL: http://tinyurl.com/Steele-Water IF sea level is rising by 3mm a year, and there are roughly 335,258,000 square kilometers of ocean surface, and a 3mm rise equates to 3,000 cubic meters per square kilometer, THEN there are one trillion cubic meters (1,005,774,000,000) of sea water available for harvesting if our objective is to both maintain …

Sepp Hasslberger: Electronically Mediated Seawater Desalination — Low Energy Low Cost Portable Potentially Massive Scale
It needs further development, but when scaled up it could provide desalinated sea water at a fraction of the cost of today’s membrane based reverse osmosis systems… New Invention Makes Ocean Water Drinkable Susanne Posel Occupy Corporatism, July 2, 2013 Chemists with the University of Texas and the University of Marburg have devised a method …
George Abney: Emerging Desalination Technology
Respect is due to those who developed the viable method of desalination of seawater described in this report. A means of mitigating the damage done by fracking to potable ground water should include Canadian advances in desalination technology presented by Tang/Zoshi of rexresearch.com. The cumulative effects of fracking includes networked systems in the environment including …

Journal: $20M water desalination project in Iraq
Adding to installations in Oman and Egypt, India’s Shivsu Canadian Clear says its new plant in Baghdad is expected to convert 20 million liters per day. The company’s Vice President Satish Kumar told the Cleantech Group today that the Iraq installation uses reverse osmosis to convert seawater into potable water that has industrial and drinking …
