Neues, auf Sonnenlicht basierendes Entsalzungsgerät stellt Frischwasser her und gewinnt Lithium zurück

Researchers at the University of Rochester have developed a new solar-thermal desalination process that converts ocean water into fresh water using only sunlight. Even better, it solves the environmental crisis plaguing existing water plants: toxic waste.

This novel method eliminates the need for chemical pre-treatments and completely avoids the creation of toxic liquid brine. The system was tested on actual water samples from the Pacific, Atlantic, and Indian Oceans. It successfully extracted fresh water while continuously shifting the remaining salts into a passive zone for later collection, maintaining peak panel efficiency throughout.
