The Economist recently published a very good primer on water desalination. It contains some cautious prediction about future growth of thermal and membrane desalination plants, but all of that could change if Mohammed Rasool Qtaisha, a chemical engineering PhD student at the Univers...
In RO, feedwater is pumped at high pressure through permeable membranes, separating salts from the water. Distillation Desalinating seawater is more straightforward than desalinating groundwater. Desalination creates jobs.
Desalination is essentially a two-stage process. The first stage removes all the sand, algae and other sediment from the seawater; then the still-salty water goes through a reverse osmosis process in which it is pushed through an extremely fine plastic membrane under high pressure. Onl...
The city also has an agreement to buy 10 million to 25 million gallons of water a day from the desalination plant at a price no higher than it would pay the San Diego County Water Authority, which supplies water to local water districts.
