Arizona solar canal project aims to save water while making power

With most of Arizona in a state of moderate to extreme drought, the Gila River Indian Community and the US Army Corps of Engineers have signed a deal to begin a solar-over-canal project designed to cut down evaporation and boost solar efficiency.Contin… Continue reading Arizona solar canal project aims to save water while making power

Sand forms clouds and rain on nearby alien planet, says Webb

The James Webb Space Telescope has made the first direct analysis of clouds on a nearby alien world. These aren’t just made of water vapor but also sand, which would move around the planet much like Earth’s water cycle.Continue ReadingCategory: Space, … Continue reading Sand forms clouds and rain on nearby alien planet, says Webb

Sun-run device turns dirty water into hydrogen fuel & drinking water

Researchers have created a floating, solar-powered device that converts contaminated water or seawater into clean hydrogen fuel and drinking water. Because it works with any open water source and doesn’t require external power, the device could be used… Continue reading Sun-run device turns dirty water into hydrogen fuel & drinking water

Water can evaporate with just light, no heat, says surprising study

Contrary to what we all learned in elementary school science class, it turns out that heat may not be necessary to make water evaporate. Scientists at MIT have made the surprising discovery that light alone can evaporate water, and is even more efficie… Continue reading Water can evaporate with just light, no heat, says surprising study

World’s most water-repellent surface surprises its own inventors

Scientists have developed what they call the most water-repellent surface ever. By giving it a liquid-like coating that defies usual designs, water will roll off the surface at angles 500 times shallower than other superhydrophobic materials.Continue R… Continue reading World’s most water-repellent surface surprises its own inventors

Low-power desalination tech may provide drinking water at disaster sites

At disaster sites, it’s not uncommon for both the water supply and electrical grid to be out of commission. That’s where a new system may someday come in, as it utilizes just a small amount of electricity – which could be stored in a battery – to desal… Continue reading Low-power desalination tech may provide drinking water at disaster sites
