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 ...

The more efficient desalination process could ease dwindling water supplies. Scientists may have found a more efficient water to desalinate water using solar power, according to new research, offering ...

Engineers built a solar-powered desalination system that produces large quantities of clean water despite variations in sunlight throughout the day. Because it requires no extra batteries, it offers a ...

Scientists led by the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) have designed a new PV-powered desalination system based on the time-variant electrodialysis reversal (EDR) technology. The proposed ...

GUVO, Tohono O'odham Reservation — Selina Jesus filled her bottle from the wall-mounted spigot outside the town store, the product of a solar-powered system that pulls and collects water vapor from ...

Jon Bessette sits atop a trailer housing the electrodialysis desalination system at the Brackish Groundwater National Research Facility (BGNDRF) in Alamogordo, New Mexico. The system is connected to ...
