An off-grid desalination technology that combines membrane distillation with light-harvesting nanophotonics is being developed by the Centre for Nanotechnology Enabled Water Treatment (NEWT) at Rice University.   Video: NEWT Centre will use nanotechnology to transform water treatment. NEWT’s ‘nanophotonics-enabled solar membrane distillation’ technology, or NESMD, is described in an article in the Proceedings of the […]
