Reply to comment by Techutante in UIUC Researchers propose a new way to get fresh water from seawater, without the disadvantages of traditional desalination. They say that a vertical “capture surface” that is 210 m wide and 100 m tall, could extract enough vapor floating above warm oceans to supply 500,000 people with freshwater by lughnasadh

Trouble is that the parts of the earth where desalination is necessary are typically very far from places where brine solution is needed to thaw roads.
