Sea level rise means fresh groundwater will increasingly become salty. Yat Li explains how his novel 3D-printed desalination ...

From Cape Town to Tehran to Lima to Phoenix, dozens of cities across the globe have experienced water shortages recently. And in the next five years the world’s demand for fresh water could ...

Researchers also developed a device to overcome salt accumulation, a common problem in desalination. Their design uses a ...

It’s a cruel reality that only about 3% of the world’s water is fresh, and of that, only a fraction is readily available. Yet as the world’s arid regions encounter intensifying droughts, more people ...

It's hard to envision a future water supply portfolio that meets our state's ever-increasing demand for potable water that ...

Drought and climate change are impacting water supplies around the world. But desalination — pulling fresh, drinkable water from saltwater— can offer some relief. Desalination technology has existed ...

When the largest seawater desalination facility in the U.S. officially opened in 2015, it initially relied on cooling water drawn through the Encina Power Station.

Just off the coast of Malibu, California, a network of underwater pods is preparing to do something no U.S. desalination system has done before: transform deep-sea ocean water into drinking water ...

Dozens of water-harvesting pods are set to be deployed along the sea floor off the coast of California as the United States ramps up its first subsea desalination project. The effort is expected to ...

Scientists at the Indian Institute of Science (IISc), Bengaluru, have developed an improved technology for sea water desalination, using a “siphon-based water delivery system”. You can put sea water ...
