Abstract

Seawater Desalination is one of the modern method in conjunction to elucidation in national water crisis especially with limited fresh water access countries such as Middle east and Singapore. Desalination membrane transfer uses stretchy knitted fabric. Bamboo woven membranes are being developed to extract salt and minerals from saltwater. Small threads make these membranes water-permeable but not other molecules. Bamboo fiber desalination membranes have strong mechanical strength, chemical resistance, and water permeability. Desalination solutions are sought due to population expansion and freshwater demand
