Apparently dealing with the brine is a big issue though. Source: heresay

Evaporate to dryness and sprinkle on roads and/or fried potatoes?

And as oil is cheap, we can use that to generate the needed energy!

Collecting water from the air is not really viable in the parts of the world where lack of water is an issue since humidity is not very high there. You would need to filter huge amounts of air even just to theoretically get enough water, never mind practical concerns like efficiencies of less than 100%.

Dude, even heaters cannot get to 100% efficiency.
taladar@sh.itjust.works 9 months ago
The point is that even with 100% efficiency you couldn’t get enough water out of the air because the dry air simply doesn’t hold that much water.

…heaters are the one thing that’s 100% efficient. And if you want to go even further, look up heat pumps.
