Researchers transform seawater into purified drinking water using sunlight – iNews
An efficient process for filtering and purifying salt water could help to provide billions with fresh drinking water
Researchers have purified salt water into drinkable water using a combination of metal compounds and sunlight, a breakthrough that could hold significant implications for the provision of safe water for millions of people globally.
A team from Monash University in Australia used metal-organic frameworks (MOFs), metal ion compounds that form into a crystalline material, to absorb water, filtering out potentially harmful particles and salt ions.
