Water desalination removes minerals from sea or brackish water through processes including reverse osmosis, thermal distillation, and electrodialysis. These processes use membranes, heat, or electrical charges to trap unwanted salt and minerals, leaving fresh water behind. Other processes include solar humidification, membrane distillation, and freezing. Water desalination is the process of removing minerals from sea […]
Water desalination removes salt and minerals from water for drinking or irrigation, producing brine that can be processed into table salt. It is expensive but necessary where natural water is limited. Methods include multistage flash distillation and reverse osmosis. Environmental concerns include harm to marine life and disposal of the brine byproduct. Water desalination is […]
Water desalination removes salt and minerals from water for drinking and irrigation, producing brine that can be processed into table salt. It’s expensive compared to natural sources, but necessary in areas with limited water. Methods include multistage flash distillation and reverse osmosis, but raise environmental concerns about marine life and brine disposal. Water desalination is […]
