Making seawater drinkable in minutes

Making seawater drinkable in minutes: A research team in Korea Institute of Civil Engineering and Building Technology (KICT) has developed co-axial electrospun nanofiber membranes fabricated by an alternative nanotechnology, which is electrospinning. This new desalination technology shows it has the potential to help solve the world's freshwater shortage. The developed technology can prevent wetting issues and also improve the long-term stability in membrane distillation process.
