But can it be scaled up even more? Like cubic meters per hour?
but why “if”?
if they’re making this research, why wouldn’t they “scale up to the size of a small suitcase” and get rid of the “if”?
My guess: They don’t have the money to do so.
I just keep waiting for them to actually produce the small suitcase sized product. It sounds like a excellent option for me, as opposed to the $4-5k desalinators that are the options now.
