It’s more of a matter of opinion whether they have the minimum functionality required,” David Blaauw, a professor of electrical and computer engineering in the University of Michigan said in a press release....

Engineers the Massachusetts Institute of Technology (MIT) has developed a new and more efficient way to desalinate water using an electric shockwave. The technique known as ‘shock electrodialysis’ applies an electrically driven shockwave to a constant stream of flowing water. The current interacts with the charged salt particles, causing a stream of salty water to be pushed aside and separated from a stream of fresh water, and these are then funnelled into separate pipes....
