These shortcomings have led Elimelech to research and develop a less expensive method of desalination in hopes of popularizing the technology.
In the February issue of Desalination, Elimelech delineates his method to separate salt from seawater by forward osmosis, in which water flows across a semi-permeable membrane from seawater to a solution of higher osmotic pressure, known as the “draw” solution.
Elimelech proposes ammonium bicarbonate as an ideal solute for the draw solution due to its ready decomposition into ammonia and carbon dioxide gas upon heating.

We later learn that he is a close relative of one of the story's main characters, Boaz—perhaps a cousin or uncle (a brother seems unlikely as that would probably be stated).
For while Elimelech's name meant "God Is My King" and his wife Naomi's meant "My Delight" or "Pleasant," they named their sons Mahlon (meaning "Sickly") and Chilion (meaning "Pining," "Failing" or "Wasting Away").
It is not clear whether these names were given at birth or later (similar to Naomi later renaming herself Mara, verse 20).
