Osmosis
-
A new highly permeable, surface-structured membrane that resists the clogging that typically occurs when seawater, brackish water and waste-water are purified could help to significantly reduce desalination operating costs.
-
New water desalination approach could lead to portable units for disaster relief or remote locationsA new approach to desalination, called ion concentration polarization, could lead to small, portable desalination units that could deliver enough fresh water to supply the needs of a family or small village.

Her Royal Highness Crown Princess Mette-Marit of Norway officially opened Statkraft's osmotic power plant prototype on 24th November
-
Using a modified microbial fuel cell, an international team of researchers has proven a process that cleans wastewater can also remove 90 percent of salt from brackish water or seawater while generating electricity.
-
The mini-mobile-modular (M3) “smart” water desalination and filtration system could help determine the feasibility of using available water as a source for a large-scale desalination plant.

Green energy comes in many guises these days, from wind-power to wave-power. One of the more compelling of the new kids on the eco-energy block is salinity power, which uses the concurrence of salt-water and freshwater in estuaries and marries it with the natural, effortless process of osmosis.

Hydration Technologies has developed a passive filtration system that creates a safe, clean drink from any contaminated groundwater without the use of power, pumping or chemicals.
