ABSTRACT:
A desalination system using hydrostatic pressure formed in a vertical mine shaft to function reverse osmosis membranes plumbed so that permeate water from the last membrane is input water to the next. The hydrostatic pressure forces the brine water from the first membrane nearly to the earth's surface. The second brine water is likely usable as drinking water. The final product water is pure enough to be agriculturally usable.
