Is the Future of Fresh Water Under the Sea?
Manage episode 516600988 series 3368350
Michael Porter is the Chief Technology Officer of OceanWell.
Michael's problem is this: How can you desalinate water at the bottom of the ocean – and deliver it to land at a cost that’s competitive with other sources of fresh water?
On today’s show, Michael explains how he built OceanWell’s prototype in his kitchen, what it takes to make a system that’s less disruptive to marine life, and why innovations from the oil and gas industry are making his work possible.
