A quick way to make a liquid boil without heating it is to place a container of the liquid in a vacuum chamber and start pumping out the air. Seawater is distilled with a big help from the reduction of pressure on it. That way it doesn't have to be heated so much to cause it to change to steam. Modern naval ships have water desalination facilities on board that rely in part of the idea of reduction of pressure to lower the boiling point of the water. It's faster and more energy efficient.
