Desalination Breakthrough Could Lead to Cheaper Water Filtration
news.utexas.edu- Removing salt from water has been a challenge for scientists for decades, and this new study might provide a way to make it easier.
- Researchers found that membranes used to clean water in desalination technology are inconsistent - making them uniformly dense at the nanoscale can help.
- This can improve membrane efficiency by 30-40%, making desalination cheaper.
- Desalination is becoming more important every year, as more people struggle to get access to clean water.
