Always wondered why the coast of the Red Sea isn't littered with channels which get flooded with seawater, which then evpporate into glassed ceilings; creating freshwater, and leaving behind salts for mining.
Combined with some mangrove farms, surely desert coasts are able to support more life.
Wonder if this is scalable tech, and how quickly it can 'process' water. I guess if they're combined with transparent solar panels, it could be quite an epic tech.
Sand -> Glass -> heated saltwater -> freshwater + minerals -> ??? -> profit?
