Making water better, molecule by molecule
Published on by Water Network Research, Official research team of The Water Network in Academic
Israel's got one of the most advanced water desalination programs in the world and dozens of successful water conservation and reclamation projects. Now, cutting-edge Israeli research on water technology will make its way to American academia, as the University of Chicago and Ben-Gurion University have signed a partnership agreement to create new water production and purification technologies for deployment in regions of the globe where freshwater resources are scarce — based on nanotechnology.
The plan includes the establishment of a research center based in both Chicago and Beersheba where "the molecular aspects of water science and technology will result in a powerful new approach for addressing the various and pervasive challenges to the global water supply," said University of Chicago president Robert J. Zimmer at a March 8 signing ceremony in Chicago with BGU president Rivka Carmi.
