Discussion Desalinate water?

Maybe this has been asked, but what do you think? Could a Waterbender desalinate water? Could an Earthbender desalinate water?

What about an Earthbender and a Waterbemder? Together, could they desalinate water?

A water bender could easily desalinate water by acting as a one-person distillery: evaporate the salt water, move the steam somewhere, condense it back into water, boom.
