*Abstract

Professor Cohen and colleagues have developed a method and system to continuously, sustainably, and inexpensively desalinate high salinity water of high mineral scaling propensity. The system is able to process waters as contaminated as industrial, agricultural, and mining wastewaters, with recovery levels reach in excess of 90-95%.
