I understand this tech is capable of desalination.

Yes, and the filters are being produced in existing formats, meaning they are immediately interchangeable with filters currently in use, thereby eliminating the need for refitting desal plants.

But wait, there's more! In a convergence of leading edge technologies, the Koreans are working on producing cost effective carbon nanotube desal filters with 3D printing.

...........
3d printing is really the ticket.

where did you read that?

carbon nanotubes have been in the lab news for a decade but they never make it to the desalination plants because of issues related to manufacturing.
