Dubai: The United Arab Emirates has revolutionized the world of science.
According to media reports, researchers at the UAE University have conducted an ideal scientific experiment that has the potential to revolutionize the water purification industry.
Scientists at the university’s National Water and Energy Center have introduced a new method of extracting salt from water that effectively reduces energy consumption during the desalination process.
The low-energy water purification system has been patented by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office, bringing the number of patents obtained by UAE University scientists in national priority areas to more than 178. This is a testament to the University’s support for sustainable development projects in the UAE.

The traditional desalination process involves the use of heat, re-condensation of water, and then the evaporation of thin membranes that allow water to pass through without salt. Do
In contrast, scientists at the University of the United Arab Emirates have directly applied the theoretical principles of thermodynamics and large-scale energy conservation to discover how water can be purified by a combination of high and low pressure.
In this modern method, the salt water is first pushed through a ventilation device through a pipeline at high pressure in which the speed of the water is increased and its pressure is reduced so that without heating or lowering. Less than the evaporation of the heating system, then the water is turned into steam by keeping it at a very low pressure and after thickening again, the water is completely purified.
