This particular solution uses a 3D membrane and nanotechnology. While scientists have used membrane distillation in the past, if the membrane became too wet, it was unable to reject the salt. According to the UN, more than 3 billion people worldwide are affected by water shortages. If commercialized, they say the solution could help alleviate the drinking water crisis exacerbated by climate change. The researchers’ membrane distillation process resulted in 99.9 percent salt rejection for a whole month. Korean scientists claim a new desalination technique makes seawater fit to drink in minutes.

Rimac, meanwhile, can tap into the knowledge of Bugatti, which makes the second-fastest street-legal car on the planet: the Bugatti Veyron. Bugatti and Rimac will share resources and expertise but remain separate brands with their own production and distribution setups.īugatti will be able to harness Rimac's EV know-how and perhaps carry on its legacy of making electric vehicles. Electric hypercar company Rimac is taking control of Volkswagen’s supercar brand Bugatti as part of a joint venture with Porsche (which VW owns).
