  2. Desalination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desalination

    Microbial desalination cells are biological electrochemical systems that implements the use of electro-active bacteria to power desalination of water in situ, resourcing the natural anode and cathode gradient of the electro-active bacteria and thus creating an internal supercapacitor.

  3. Geothermal desalination - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Geothermal_Desalination

    One use of geothermal desalination is in producing fresh water for agriculture. [7] One example of agricultural applications of geothermal energy is the Balcova-Naridere Geothermal Field (BNGF) in Turkey. [7] However, arsenic and boron, two potentially toxic elements, have been found in the geothermal water used to generate electricity. [7]

    Total municipal water use in Saudi Arabia has been estimated at 2.28 cubic kilometers per year in 2010, or 13% of total water use. Agriculture accounts for 83% of water use and industry for only 4%. [10] Demand has been growing at the rate of 4.3% per annum (average for the period 1999-2004), in tandem with urban population growth (around 3%).

    Investment in desalination plants is financed by the private sector through BOO contracts. Investment in water distribution and sewerage infrastructure is financed by the government through subsidies to the respective public companies. Investment in both power and water production and distribution was more than US$36 billion from 1999 to 2008. [7]

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Desert_farming

    The small desert nation reuses 86% of its wastewater as of 2011, and 40% of the total water used by agriculture was reclaimed wastewater. [10] Desalination, brackish, or effluent water also accounts for 44% of Israel's water supply, [11] and the world's largest seawater desalination plant is the Sorek Desalination Plant located in Tel Aviv. [12]

  7. Water scarcity in the United States - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Water_scarcity_in_the...

    The water scarcity issues around the world largely revolve around lack of access to fresh water; water is still extremely abundant in the world. Desalination is a method of turning unusable saltwater into potable water. In a sense, it is transporting water from areas of high availability into low availability. Aqueduct systems do the same.

  9. Seawater greenhouse - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Seawater_Greenhouse

    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] The system uses seawater and solar energy, and has a similar structure to the pad-and-fan greenhouse, but with additional evaporators and condensers. [1]
