The salt water purification is a matter of extreme importance, since in the coming years freshwater availability will decrease, and should be thinking parallel tracks for human survival. These include the conversion of salt water into fresh (or drinking). Considering that 97.5% of water on the planet is salty (most of the sea), can not help but conclude that something must be done to treat drinking this water.

Before proceeding with this issue, we must be clear that it is salt water. Is the water in the sea or in lakes and rivers connected to the sea (through some arm). Salt dissolved solids content must be maintained between the values: 1.000 mg / l and 10.000 mg. / L. Although the seawater, this rises to: 10,000 mg / l and 40,000 mg. / L.
