U.S. Navy Pumps More Money into High Efficiency Desalination Technology
Abstract:
The U.S. Office of Naval Research has awarded a $400,000 grant to desalination tech leader NanoH2O, to develop a high efficiency desalination nanomembrane that is more resistant to fouling. The effort, part of the Navy's Future Naval Capabilities program, is aimed at increasing energy efficiency and portability for shipboard use.
