  2. Desalination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desalination

    Desalination is a process that removes mineral components from saline water. More generally, desalination is the removal of salts and minerals from a substance. [1] One example is soil desalination. This is important for agriculture. It is possible to desalinate saltwater, especially sea water, to

  3. Soil salinity control - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Soil_salinity_control

    Crop tolerance to seawater – Crop tolerance to seawater is the ability of an agricultural crop to withstand the high salinity induced by irrigation with seawater. Desalination – Removal of salts from water; Halophyte – Salt-tolerant plant; Halotolerance – Adaptation to high salinity

  4. Water conservation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_conservation

    Seawater desalination requires more energy than the desalination of fresh water. Despite this, many seawater desalination plants have been built in response to water shortages around the world. This makes it necessary to evaluate the impacts of seawater desalination and to find ways to improve desalination technology.

  5. Seawater greenhouse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seawater_Greenhouse

    A seawater greenhouse is a greenhouse structure that enables the growth of crops and the production of fresh water in arid regions. Arid regions constitute about one third of the Earth's land area. Seawater greenhouse technology aims to mitigate issues such as global water scarcity, peak water and soil becoming salted. [1]

    More generally, desalination is the removal of salts and minerals from a substance. [15] One example is soil desalination. This is important for agriculture. It is possible to desalinate saltwater, especially sea water, to produce water for human consumption or irrigation. The by-product of the desalination process is brine. [16]
