There are three main types of volcano-composite or strato, shield and dome. Composite Volcanoes. Composite volcanoes, sometimes known as strato volcanoes, are steep sided cones formed from layers of ash and [lava] flows.The eruptions from these volcanoes may be a pyroclastic flow rather than a flow of lava.A pyroclastic flow is a superheated mixture of hot steam, ash, rock and dust.omposite volcanoes, sometimes known as strato volcanoes, are steep sided cones formed from layers of ash and [lava] flows.

Desalination plants typically use reverse osmosis, a process that pushes saltwater through a membrane to create purified, drinking water. But in addition to being costly, and energy-intensive, reverse osmosis can negatively impact the environment.
As an example, if your car's gas tank is 2 feet by 1 foot by 1 foot (2 cubic feet), then gas flowing at a rate of 1 cubic foot/second would fill the tank in two seconds. desalination--the removal of salts from saline water to provide freshwater.
