NanOasis Technologies, Inc. (Richmond, CA) will utilize carbon nanotubes to make
industrially scalable high efficiency reverse osmosis membranes with 10 times the
flux of existing membranes. If this project is successful, this disruptive technology
will enable energy efficient and cost-effective harvesting of fresh water from
the 97% of global water found in the oceans and provide a critical source of fresh
water for U.S. energy and food crops, power plants, industrial plants, and water-stressed
communities.
