Mapping groundwater abstractions from irrigated agriculture: big data, inverse modeling, and a satellite–model fusion approach [PDF]

Hydrology and Earth System Sciences, 2020
The agricultural sector in Saudi Arabia has witnessed rapid growth in both production and area under cultivation over the last few decades. This has prompted some concern over the state and future availability of fossil groundwater resources, which have

Modification of Urushiol Derivatives by Liquid Crystal Epoxy Resin

International Journal of Polymer Science, 2015
Urushiol derivatives have vast potentials for using as coating materials. However, the cured coatings are quite brittle, limiting their applications. In this study, urushiol-furfural (UFUR) was chosen as an example of urushiol derivatives and a liquid ...

Thermodiffusive desalination

Nature Communications
AbstractDesalination could solve the grand challenge of water scarcity, but materials-based and conventional thermal desalination methods generally suffer from scaling, fouling and materials degradation. Here, we propose and assess thermodiffusive desalination (TDD), a method that operates entirely in the liquid phase and notably excludes evaporation ...

Metal-organic framework enables ultraselective polyamide membrane for desalination and water reuse

Science Advances, 2022
While reverse osmosis (RO) is the leading technology to address the global challenge of water scarcity through desalination and potable reuse of wastewater, current RO membranes fall short in rejecting certain harmful constituents from seawater (e.g ...

Gradient Graphene Spiral Sponges for Efficient Solar Evaporation and Zero Liquid Discharge Desalination with Directional Salt Crystallization

Advancement of science
Solar desalination is a promising strategy to utilize solar energy to purify saline water. However, the accumulation of salt on the solar evaporator surface severely reduces light absorption and evaporation performance.
