Global water scarcity including surface water quality and expansions of clean water technologies

Michelle T. H. van Vliet et al.

Summary: Global water scarcity is influenced by both water quantity and quality issues, and increasing investment in clean water technologies is crucial to reduce the number of people affected. Considering water quality factors can raise the percentage of population suffering from severe water scarcity in heavily affected regions. Excessive water withdrawals and polluted return flows contribute to water scarcity and degraded water quality in severe water scarcity regions. Expanding desalination and treated wastewater reuse can effectively alleviate water scarcity levels in Asia, but potential side effects must be carefully considered.

Fouling fractionation in reverse electrodialysis with natural feed waters demonstrates dual media rapid filtration as an effective pre-treatment for fresh water

Barbara Vital et al.

Summary: Reverse electrodialysis (RED) is a process to harvest renewable energy from the salinity gradient obtained by mixing river and seawater, but fouling in RED process, both biological and conventional, can impact the power density of obtained stacks. More insight is needed on how fouling affects RED in order to design effective pre-treatment solutions.

Wettability Contrast in the Hexagonally Patterned Gold Substrate of Distinct Morphologies for Enhanced Fog Harvesting

Brindhu S. Malani et al.

Summary: Inspired by the Stenocara beetle's surface properties, hexagonally patterned hydrophobic-hydrophilic surfaces were fabricated and shown to transition from hydrophilicity to hydrophobicity after surface functionalization. Surface functionalization with MHA/OTS resulted in the highest contact angle and least contact angle hysteresis. The patterned and functionalized substrates exhibited enhanced water collection rate for fog harvesting applications.
