This New Technology Converts Sea Water into Drinking Water in Minutes
Green Virals | February 18, 2016
The technology uses a desalination technique called pervaporation. Salt is removed from sea water using specifically designed synthetic membranes which filter out large salt particles and impurities so they can be evaporated away. The remaining salt is heated, vapourised, and condensed back into clean water.
[From India, and a different technology from the researchers in Egypt] Researchers from IISc have come up with an innovative technology which can provide clean drinking water to the remotest corners of the country without any harm to the environment. It can convert contaminated water into clean drinking water using very less power.
