Clean water could be zapped out of power plant steam
Approximately 39 percent of all water drawn from US rivers, lakes and reservoirs is used to cool electric power plants. Much of that water, in turn, ends up going out those plants' cooling towers in the form of steam. A new system created at MIT, however, could convert that steam into clean drinking water.
