According to Penn State researchers, a new desalination technique is able to remove salt from water using less energy than previous methods. Globally, there is reduced access to fresh water. More and more, the waters that are being used are impaired, either due to salt or other contaminants. To combat this problem the researchres have come up with a desalination method called "BDI" i-e "battery electrode deionization". BDI improves upon standard capacitive deionization (CDI) techniques by eliminating the regeneration stage and lowering the voltage required to complete the process.
