Offers better brine handling and produces higher-purity water, making it ideal for offshore green hydrogen production. Sustainable and efficient solution with low environmental impact.
How do you handle the brine? “Minimal amounts” of brine is not an answer. What’s a minimal amount? What are you going to do with it? If you dump it back in the ocean, you increase salinity.
The brine solution will contain concentrated amounts of elements, like lithium. That concentrated solution may be economicly viable to process.
Fine. What do you do about the salt?
Fine. What do you do about the salt?
We distribute it to fanbases across the internet, who are adept at managing it.
Most media requires a lot of salt to give to their users, we’ll never run out of demand for it
My idea was you take it to a played-out salt mine, and you just put it right back in.
Why is increasing salinity of the ocean bad? Doesn’t that happen all the time on a much greater scale as ocean water evaporates into the atmosphere?
Your link (or at least what I’ve read from it) doesn’t cover why it would be bad to make the ocean saltier; it only talks about the rise of the salty ocean water.
I think it makes it pretty clear how increased salinity affects the climate, but here you go-

This is very good news if it can be scaled.
