- Every single minute, two people die because they do not have access to clean water. But we can change this: we can provide everyone on this planet with clean water! In this talk, Professor Kitty Nijmeijer will demonstrate how we can use membranes to transform a glass of dirty water into a glass of delicious, fresh drinking water. Clean water for everyone is not a dream, it can be reality!
Prof. dr. Kitty Nijmeijer is professor Membrane Materials and Processes at Eindhoven University of Technology. She has extensive experience in the development and application of membranes (filters) for the purification of water to produce clean water and for the generation of sustainable energy from sea and river water. With her work she wants to inspire people to contribute to a social and sustainable world.
This talk was given at a TEDx event using the TED conference format but independently organized by a local community. Learn more at ted.com/tedx
Is the plastic from these membranes recyclable? Plastic is another big problem we face, globally. What is done with the pollutants when they're removed from the water?
Yes, you are absolutely right. But believe me this is the way to get water for everybody.
Great questions! I'd also compare it to the methods we use now to remove toxic chemicals from the water. To remove organic contaminants is simple- just boil the water!
@@bluetortilla not everyone has power to boil water , that's why she is talking pf a way to produce water for everyone
What is that plastic material made up of? How can we make that?
My teacher gave a task on this video😅
Teacher:summarize this video write on the 1 whole sheet of paper
Me:Trying to get help on youtube
So the production of more plastics is your solution? Can the plastic membrane be reused or at least recycled?
Ayo Gents who’s watching this for school
am willing to pay to learn from this woman...
Can I make this at home?
U have better tap water than the rest of the world
clean water for ever one will done
Nestle™ & Co. think otherwise.
Moisture catch, compressor.
Somehow this needs to be applied to bodies of water. Start at waterfalls. Animals need clean water too!
I like the way you made the plastic sheet "membrane" & the idea as well. Excellent
Could anyone tell me what type of materiel that the plastic is made of?
seems like polyethersulfone
The way she talks makes me sleepy, asmr vibe.
250,000 liters of water per day= 61,250 gallons. Most Americans use 100gallons/day. So, only 612 people get osmosis water?
