25 liters of safe, drinkable water every day, from the air. The system of this Tunisian tech start-up can give some refreshment to an increasingly thirsty world
The new ETH capacitor has started its control tests. It will be able to produce drinking water all day, even at night.
A very interesting project examines the perspectives of sustainable and circular design. The desalinating chandelier is first prize.
Desalination could be the solution to the problem of water scarcity in some countries, and at incredibly low prices.
A new hydrogel-based system can make water drinkable in about an hour without using energy and without releasing substances.
An alternative nanotechnology called electrospinning is the key to desalination seawater very quickly, and solve future water shortage problems.
When you say "multifunction". Not a bad umbrella that protects from water, collects it and purifies it, right?
Death runs down the pipe: a toxic cocktail of chemical pollutants in drinking water is linked to more than 100.000 cases of cancer according to a peer-reviewed study by the Environmental Working Group.
Water covers most of the planet but is full of salt: difficult to make it drinkable. Today graphene (we all know its great properties) could provide a solution to the problem. A team of researchers from the University of Manchester has developed a special membrane equipped with 'scalable' pores and capable of filtering even the most infinitesimal salts. Current salinization plants operate slowly and laboriously. On the contrary, graphene behaves like a real sponge that absorbs… Read more
A floating solar device developed in Cambridge turns highly polluted water into renewable sources of drinking water and green hydrogen fuel, a game-changer for 1,8 billion people without access to clean water.
Inspired by nature, the synthetic spiderwebs promise to extract drinking water directly from the air, offering a solution for arid areas.
The French city launches "citizen" rainwater recuperators to optimize water management and conservation.
Indian start-up Thinkphi brings clean water and renewable energy to India with a hitherto underappreciated innovative solar umbrella.
Cutting-edge research developed by a Korean institute: energy and filter that purifies water thanks to a special membrane
No final proof, but many scientific "clues": we need to take action on PET bottled water, and quickly.
Ocean Oasis' Gaia system was designed to desalinate water using the energy of the waves themselves.
The hygroscopic technology behind these water panels can forever change the inertia of global drinking water shortages.
A “briefcase” weighing less than 10kg is a formidable tool for desalination with very low energy consumption. It can revolutionize the industry.
The future of desalination? purify salt water using a Teflon-like membrane
Photovoltaics can help produce electricity and water by developing a new irrigation system for the desert.
