DESALINATION RESOURCES

• Thirst For Water: How The Nation’s Largest Desalination Plant Is Generating Change

  Nearly a decade on, the Carlsbad Desalination Plant is a model of success not only for seawater reverse osmosis but also for visionary problem-solving.
• More Water At The Lower Cost: A Revolution In RO Technology

  This white paper will explore how the BiTurbo, a revolution in high recovery RO, optimizes membrane performance and reduces total cost of water. 

• The Importance Of Clean Water, A Foundation For Green Hydrogen Energy Production

  As the global economy starts fully integrating other sources of energy in addition to fossil fuel, solar and wind, green hydrogen is starting to gain momentum.

• Desalinating Seawater Sounds Easy, But There Are Cheaper And More Sustainable Ways To Meet People's Water Needs

  Coastal urban centers around the world are urgently looking for new, sustainable water sources as their local supplies become less reliable. In the U.S., the issue is especially pressing in California, which is coping with a record-setting, multidecadal drought.

• Brine Management — A Necessity, Not A Luxury

  Brine is everywhere: desalination plants, gas and oil drillings, energy generation plants, mines, cooling towers, food manufacturing plants, chip fabrication, and many other industries that require high volumes of water. They all generate brine as a byproduct of their processes.

• Addressing Environmental And Societal Issues Using Nanotechnology

  Among the plethora of social problems that impact people all over the globe, some are very easy to solve while others may take millennia to resolve completely. Social concerns are developing and evolving constantly, and novel challenges are frequently thrust to the fore.

• ABB Technology Further Strengthens Singapore’s Water Security

  Singapore is using desalination as part of the solution to their water supply issue in order to provide enough clean drinking water for its ever-growing population of 5.5 million.

• Technologies That Can Achieve Water And Sanitation For All

  A staggering four billion people — two-thirds of the world’s population — experience water scarcity each year, and more than half lack access to safe sanitation services. The severity of this global water crisis will only increase as populations continue to rapidly grow, industries exhaust shared resources and extreme weather events exacerbate shortages. If we don’t act urgently, 700 million people could be displaced by intense water scarcity in just a few short years.

• Pros & Cons Of Sea Water Desalination Using Reverse Osmosis For Drinking Water

  Sea water desalination is unequivocally the future of drinking water production for coastal communities and island nations in current times of water scarcity. It is already used quite heavily in a few countries. Saudi Arabia, the United Arab Emirates, and the United States are the top three desalination producers of drinking water by capacity in the world followed by Australia, China, and Kuwait.

• Overcoming The Global Water Crisis: A Focus On Wastewater Recycling & Water Reuse

  While it is true that more than half of our planet’s surface is covered in water, a vast majority of it is saline. Fresh water, the water we use in hundreds of ways every day, constitutes only 2.5 % of all the water on the Earth. Today, the world faces what is known as the water crisis. Parts of the world do not have access to this most vital resource on the planet. Therefore, a focus on water recycling and water reuse is required to optimize the use of our critical water resources.
