Engineers are aiming to turn seawater into drinking water with a completely passive, solar-powered device that is inspired by the ocean.

MIT engineers and collaborators developed a solar-powered device that avoids salt-clogging issues of other designs.

    Would it be posible to salinate the waste water that goes back to the ocean from treatment plants?

      I think the problem is that it’s too salinated and needs to be put back into the ocean slowly over a wide area.
