Sounds very interesting, both for desalination and as a possible energy source to replace eliminate dependency on oil. Thanks for sharing…
Old news, I’m afraid… they’ve taken a hard look at the numbers… it’s not very efficient.
Would you be willing to share the source from where the numbers came from? Thx.
