The solution to this could be MoS2 coupled with nanopores.

This means that to operate it needs more pressure (and thus energy).

They are also exposed to more clogging, which increases the operational costs.

‘Nanopores’ developed by scientists filters salt out of seawater at a cheaper price

However, behind the system the ingenuity is not just in its engineering.

So, here is the worlds first thirsty water filter.

Im very hopeful that this work can help the designers of desalination plants.
