The U.S. Department of Energy (DOE) is proposing to provide federal funding to Oregon State University (OSU) to design, develop, fabricate, and lab test water desalination technology. Design and fabrication of a polymer-based desalination module would occur at OSU’s Water and Energy Technologies Lab in Bend, OR. Software development would take place at the University of Maryland in College Park, MD, design and fabrication of heat exchangers would occur at Michigan State University in East Lansing, MI and materials and corrosion testing would be performed at the University of Nevada in Reno, NV.
