Goedemorgen!
Mocht je € 5 over hebben, het Sameer Project in Gaza heeft geld nodig om de bouwers van een ontziltingsinstallatie te betalen. De grond en de materialen hebben ze al.
Iedere euro is zeer welkom!

💁🏻♀️ TIL: Kelsey Pfendler, 31, left #Monterey, #California on May 21, in an attempt to become the youngest woman to row solo and unassisted to #Hawaii. 🚣
⛈️ In her first week, she’s already faced storms, lost her freshwater supply, and is relying on tortillas and peanut butter until the #sun returns to power her solar desalinator. The current solo record is 86 days.

💧 New solar-powered system produces fresh drinking water from seawater without chemical additives.
☀️ The technology uses black metal etched with lasers to absorb sunlight efficiently and a self-cleaning surface that separates salts.
💎 Leftover salts are transformed into useful materials, including lithium for rechargeable batteries, addressing both water shortages and mineral demand.

@karabaic With the increasingly wild swings in climate, #desalination makes pragmatic sense. #SodiumIon #batteries are a byproduct of desalination plants that haven't been pursued, nearly enough. Even wave conversion to energy is in the mix with these plants, with other benefits to be added.

The Lovely War
Donald Trump threatens Iran the way he once threatened a recalcitrant steak: same wounded, flinty, infant-king fury. A working homage to Martin Amis -- on the Epstein flights, the six-billion-dollar goon squad, the taunting of a proud civilisation, and a nine-year-old girl in Minab waiting for the water that is her birthright. The infant-king has other plans. -

New #SodiumIon battery stores twice the energy and #desalinates #seawater
Date: February 19, 2026
Source: University of SurreySummary: A surprising breakthrough could help sodium-ion batteries rival lithium—and even turn seawater into drinking water. Scientists discovered that keeping water inside a key battery material, instead of removing it as traditionally done, dramatically boosts performance. The “wet” version stores nearly twice as much charge, charges faster, and remains stable for hundreds of cycles, placing it among the top-performing sodium battery materials ever reported.
"In research published in the Journal of Materials Chemistry A, scientists examined sodium vanadium oxide, a well-known sodium-based compound. They discovered that allowing the material to retain its natural water content significantly enhances how it functions inside a battery.
"The compound, called nanostructured sodium vanadate hydrate (#NVOH), delivered far stronger results when used in its hydrated form. It stored substantially more energy, charged at a faster rate, and maintained stability for more than 400 charge cycles.
"During testing, the hydrated version held nearly twice as much charge as standard sodium-ion cathode materials. This performance places it among the top cathodes reported so far for sodium-ion batteries.
"Dr. Daniel Commandeur, Research Fellow at the University of Surrey School of Chemistry and Chemical Engineering, and lead author of the paper, said: 'Our results were completely unexpected. Sodium vanadium oxide has been around for years, and people usually heat-treat it to remove the water because it's thought to cause problems. We decided to challenge that assumption, and the outcome was far better than we anticipated. The material showed much stronger performance and stability than expected and could even create exciting new possibilities for how these batteries are used in the future.'
#Seawater Operation and Electrochemical #Desalination
"The team also explored how the material performed in salt water, an especially demanding environment for battery systems. Not only did it continue operating effectively, it also removed sodium ions from the saltwater solution. At the same time, a graphite electrode extracted chloride ions in a process known as electrochemical desalination.
"Dr. Commandeur added: 'Being able to use sodium vanadate hydrate in salt water is a really exciting discovery, as it shows sodium-ion batteries could do more than just store energy -- they could also help remove salt from water. In the long term, that means we might be able to design systems that use seawater as a completely safe, free and abundant electrolyte, while also producing #FreshWater as part of the process.' "
