Most modern desalination plants rely on a process known as reverse osmosis. Seawater is forced at high pressure through a ...

Three companies are leveraging modern technology to reshape the future of commercial desalination, making the process cleaner, smarter, and more cost-effective, the Wall Street Journal reported.

MIDLAND, Texas — Water has always been a concern in West Texas. With little rain and other issues, the supply is always in question. One solution brought to attention by State Representative Brooks ...

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 ...

A team of researchers has just unveiled a desalination technology that could transform how we get fresh water. Their new system pairs a low-energy technique called electrodialysis with tough and ...

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 ...

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, ...

A Japanese water plant is harnessing the natural process of osmosis to generate renewable energy that could one day become a ...

Desalination is emerging as a critical solution for water scarcity, particularly in drought-affected regions. This article ...

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 ...

A permit needed to operate a proposed seawater desalination plant is anticipated to go before the state’s environmental agency in about a month. The Texas Commission on Environmental Quality plans to ...
