CHAPTER I Introduction Over 70% of the planet is covered by water. (75% of that is salt water‚ only leaving a 25% as fresh water which can be used for consumption. 70% of the fresh water of our planet is still frozen in the icecaps of Antarctica and Greenland; while the remaining percentage is present as soil moisture‚ or it lies underground as groundwater. Main Problem How can the seawater be utilized for the consumption of different organisms? Sub problems How will the results of the said
