I know that this has been done, though i haven't been able to find the 
procedures and materials to recreate this experiment. The results of this 
experiment gave that they were able to do this by lowering the urea and 
trimethylamine oxide fo that their overall saltiness is actually slightly 
greater than that of the sea. Please if you have time write to me, this is very 
important.
