Geothermal desalination
Geothermal desalination is an experimental process under development for the production of fresh water using heat energy extracted from underground rocks. Claimed benefits of this method of desalination are that it requires less maintenance than reverse osmosis membranes and that the primary energy input is from geothermal heat, which is a low-environmental-impact source of energy.
