Cheaper desalination process

OK I have reason to believe that a few youthful bright queers read this board.  Get working on a cheaper desalination process.

1. Go to ocean
2. Drink water
3. ???
4. PROFIT

We have 2 kidneys.  I don't think we paid our mothers any money to get them.

I have a hand desalination pump. It's a pain in the ass, but it works. Nuclear desalination=good. Solar desalination=better. Tidal desalination=nice try

The reason I ask is I would like to reduce the ocean levels due to global warming and pour out the excess water to flood Africa

You might be on to something.  If we can mass produce elephant kidneys, perhaps with stem cells, wait what do we do with the piss

>>6
The "piss" would be the desired end result, moron.
The real question is what you do about the rapid accumulation of salt in the kidneys.

>>5
If you want to flood Africa, there's no need for desalination.  If anything, salt water is better for corrupting their agricultural fields.

Along with volume regulation, one of urine's most important functions is regulation of the osmolality of an animal's internal space. There are narrow limits on the concentration of ions, in the blood and extra-cellular fluid, which are compatible with life. Although some are lost, most animals gain a large surplus of ions in their diets and must excrete them. Most humans, for example, ingest massively more sodium and chloride ions than they need in the form of salt - it is excretion of these surplus ions which makes urine taste salty.

A cheap form of osmosis?  Fine. Cover 100 miles inland with trash and pipes that do nothing but pump ocean water onto the trash. The amount of sea water pumped has to equal the amount the sun will evaporate. Periodically lay down new trash.  Bulldoze the areas that cease to retain heat.

TAA-DAA!  It isn't going to get any cheaper than that.

Also, if there's enough heat retaining and decaying trash, the evaporation should continue at night.

Did you meant a personal device?

LOL, you'd need all the trash on earth being sent to one location.

>>11
Why do you need trash?  For larger heat capacity?

No other resource on earth is as plentiful, and yea. not just capacity, but it'll even produce heat, too. Airspaces, trash and muck, seawater, you'd probably be able to evaporate...  That's a lot of math. I know fairly active compost heap 10 foot around will evaporate up to 60 gallons of water on a cool night.

On the up side, if you did that along the western coast of North Africa, you'd probably make a new rain forest all the way to Egypt.

And, I forgot, once the process started going, the new plant life would produce new layers of vegetable mass to spread on the evaporator layer.

That's brilliant. I'm stealing that.
