Makes sense.
Not that different conceptually from polymer membrane systems used in wastewater treatment.

From the article:
“The technology has been around since the mid-90s...What is new is making the membrane locally, using materials abundant in Egypt”
“It can effectively desalinate water with high concentration of salt like that of the Red Sea, where desalination costs more and yields less.”

The new Egyptian method relies on salt-attracting membranes and vaporizing heat Uh, that second part about the "vaporizing heat" is the important bit. Yeah, with enough energy pretty much anything can be done.
