Desalination: Would you like to drink a cup of seawater? |
When salt was more precious than water; desalination, basic solar desalination, was used and as the Europeans began to explore the world, the need for fresh water on ships and on remote islands became a priority. Thomas Jefferson designed a simple distillation process that could be easily described to anyone at sea, so in the event of an emergency they wouldn’t die of thirst. And in 1852, a British patent was issued for a distillation device. In 1928, the island of Curaçao in the Netherlands Antilles was the first place to make a major commitment to desalination and in 1938, a major seawater desalination plant was built in what is now Saudi Arabia.

A robust solution for industrial wastewater monitoring system (ZheJiang Huanmao Auto-Control, China) |
