Painel solar

Science and Technology

A solar panel created in the United States transforms real seawater into drinking water without generating the toxic brine that pollutes the oceans, and it also recovers salt and valuable minerals like lithium, an advancement that could simultaneously alleviate water scarcity and the search for batteries.
