What is the process whereby salt is removed from salt water​

Physics

Nady [450]4 years ago

Answer:The process of purifying sea water into fresh water is called Desalination, which essentially means removing the salt from water.

There are two main industrial size process for desalination, one is thermal desalination which is distillation using heat and the other is with Reverse Osmosis or RO using water pressure through membranes.

In some places they’re doing inverse osmosis, which needs lots and lots of energy, maybe being in a sunny place.

Evaporation is a also a good method for removing salt from sea water but that is used only in low consumption of water.Israel is currently using the desalination process successfully and there is a plant that I read about near San Diego, CA.

Here some methods are help to removing salt from sea water

Turning Salt water into Drinking water using Solar power

The MIT team's this new desalination technology "electrodialysis" is comparatively less expensive.

Graphene Sieve turns Seawater into Drinking water

A new research shows graphene can filter common salts from water to make it safe to drink.The new findings could lead to affordable desalination technology.

Graphene-oxide membranes have attracted considerable attention as promising candidates for new filtration technologies. Now the much sought-after development of making membranes capable of sieving common salts has been achieved.

New research demonstrates the real-world potential of providing clean drinking water for millions of people who struggle to access adequate clean water sources.

Explanation: Thanks and good luck.

How does the electric field intensity vary with the increase of distance of the point from the centre of a charged conducting sp
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

(i)  Electric field outside the shell:

For point r>R; draw a spherical gaussian surface of radius r.

Using gauss law, ∮E.ds=q0qend

Since E is perpendicular to gaussian surface, angle betwee E is 0.

Also E being constant, can be taken out of integral.

So, E(4πr2)=q0q

So, E=4πε01r2q

Think of a sphere with many a star-
ycow [4]

Answer:

For it is a Globular Cluster

Explanation:

These Globular clusters are not considered to be a galaxies because they bond gravitationally to orbiting galaxies like the Milky Way and their masses are relatively small.

In globular clusters, the stars are closed together and they are like 70times closer to one another in their solar neighbourhood.

A globular cluster is a spherical collection of stars that orbits a galactic core. Globular clusters are very tightly bound by gravity, which gives them their spherical shapes, and relatively high stellar densities toward their centers.

two denominational motion is not always projectile motion. in two denominational motion that is not a projectile motion, _______
irga5000 [103]

Answer:

a projectile is an object upon which the only force is gravity. Gravity acts to influence the vertical motion of the projectile, thus causing a vertical acceleration. The horizontal motion of the projectile is the result of the tendency of any object in motion to remain in motion at constant velocity.

Estefan has determined his BMI at 31. Explain how he can apply the FITT training principles to improve his body composition.
-BARSIC- [3]
Frequency:

Cardio : Five or more 
HIIT: 5 or 4

Strength: 2-3 days on non-consecutive days a week
 
Intensity:
How hard you work during the session

For cardio : workout at your target heart rate.
For HIIT: varying intensity from high to low or rest ( no slow pace)
For strength: you should lift enough weight to complete the needed number of reps and sets.

Time:

For cardio 30- 60 min
For HIIT 45 min (short periods of bursts followed by rest)

For strength depends on the amount of weight.

Type:

Either cardio, HIIT or strength training (resistance training) 

NOTE: This info is given by an unqualified brofessor, who uses his hard gained bro-science in the expense of scientific facts to solve others broblems.
