Desalination tech uses CO2 to tap into municipal wastewater as alternative freshwater source
Innovative, energy-saving, and potentially carbon-negative HIX-Desal process, developed by Lehigh University researchers, will be deployed in a research project funded by the U.S. Bureau of Reclamation
Turning cities’ wastewater into usable freshwater is an environmental win.
Engineering the system to be more energy efficient makes a good idea even better.
Using a greenhouse gas—carbon dioxide—to power the process?
