If you think of NASA, you would think that they only oversee occurrences
outside our planet. While they do oversee planetary incidents, they are
also involved in researches on anything that contributes to the
sustainability of the eco system. In this case, NASA’s Johnson Space
Center developed the Acoustics Nanotube Technology to eliminate
contaminants in water to make it potable, making it one of NASA’s
contributions to water purification technologies.
This innovation still uses a sieve, but unlike other filtration types, it is an “acoustically-driven molecular sieve embedded with small diameter nanotubes.”
This technological advancement in water filtration pushes water away
from contaminants unlike other methods. The technology has been reported in 2009
