Open Innovation Challenge: Revolutionizing Desalination For Global Water Use
Competition Goal: This competition will address issues across desalination and water scarcity in three ways:

• through encouraging new desalination systems to be more robust, affordable, and sustainable;
• by supporting novel membrane materials to make existing desalination more robust, affordable, and sustainable; and
• by encouraging innovators across the globe to get involved in developing public perception campaigns to address water scarcity from a broader perspective.

About the Research: This is categorized into two tracks (i.e. Track A and Track B)
■ Track A - The New Desalination System (core competition): the winning team will reliably and most sustainably generate one million liters of potable water per day (1,000 m3/day) from seawater at the lowest cost, below a target benchmark to ensure global accessibility, over the course of 1 year.
■ Track B - Novel Membrane Materials: The winning team will most sustainably and cost-effectively treat seawater to potable water quality using reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, demonstrating an operational lifetime of 10 years or more.
■ Ideas Competition - The Value of Water: The winning team(s) will devise the most novel, inclusive, engaging, and sustainable public perception campaign to transform the global perception of the value of water
Full details about the competition could be found in the guidelines here 
About the organizer: XPRIZE Water Scarcity is a 5-year global competition set to drive a step change in desalination technologies—reimagining systems, methods, and materials. Thereby facilitating the widespread use of desalination in a manner that supports greater socio-economic equity and environmental sustainability
Qualification?
Competing teams often include startups, university groups, companies of all sizes, high school students, families, and even individuals. Teams can come from any background, including, but certainly not limited to, scientific and/or technical disciplines like chemistry, material science, environmental engineering, system design and engineering, and more.
Award
XPRIZE Water Scarcity will have a total Prize Purse of $119,000,000 (USD)
