Desalination

Real World Example

Imagine you're trying to clean your messy room by separating the useful items from the clutter. Just like sorting through your belongings to find what you truly need, desalination involves separating the valuable fresh water from the salt and other impurities in seawater. In this analogy, the clutter represents the salt and impurities, the useful items symbolize the freshwater, and the act of sorting is akin to the desalination process that filters out the unwanted elements to leave you with what you need.
