A needle is inserted through the mother’s abdomen and 50-250 ml (as much as a cup) of amniotic fluid is withdrawn and replaced with a solution of concentrated salt. The baby breathes in ...

A new hydrophobic graphene-based material developed by IITB scientists could support efforts to address fresh water crisis ...

Desalination plants, a major and growing source of freshwater in dry regions, could produce less harmful waste using electricity and new membranes.

IIT Bombay scientists develop DSLIG evaporator for efficient water desalination, addressing challenges of solar and electric ...

Researchers at IIT Bombay have engineered a breakthrough material, the Dual-Sided Superhydrophobic Laser-Induced Graphene (DSLIG) evaporator, to tackle global freshwater scarcity. Utilizing both solar ...

Researchers have developed new membranes that could help to minimize or eliminate the brine waste that is produced during the desalination process that turns seawater into drinking water.

The process uses electricity to concentrate salt, which exists in water as charged ... so it would be amazing to help to make desalination a sustainable solution to our global water crisis." ...
