Nowadays, one of the most important challenges for human life is the lack of drinking water resources. According to the United Nations, half of the world population will experience a degree of water scarcity by 2050. With such a scenario, the combination of the need for drinking water, the looming climate change and the possibility of exploiting renewable sources, gives rise to the creation of a device capable of water desalination in a sustainable way. These requests find an answer in the mission of the "MELoDIZER" project, which aims to implement high-performance membranes and modules in strategic and sustainable applicationsof membrane distillation, and whose collaboration has allowed the development of this work.
