    Water filtration breakthrough?

    Is there someone who is an expert in purifying water (including desalination)? If so, would you discuss this announcement linked below?

    The first to state his case seems right until another comes and cross-examines him.

      Sounds very interesting!

      Looking forward to more on this in the future.

        What isn't clear from the article? The sulphur is demonstrating a Hydrophobic effect, pretty similar to what happens in the cell. Graphene is actual filtration. You have to expend energy to shove water through it, and (as mentioned in the article) some things can still get in and clog the system. The MoS2 material makes it so that you only have to move water to the system, not push it through (afaict).
        I'm not here anymore.
