Desalination Institute DME

 

Desalination Institute DME is dedicated to consolidating and structuring knowledge in the field of desalination, with a focus on economics, science, and policy. Our global mission is to provide services, share expertise, and offer further education on water desalination.

Our core areas of expertise include:

Water – Desalination – Resources

Since 2008, we have operated independently, serving clients worldwide and locally in desalination projects and technology. We offer advisory services to public institutions, insurers, lenders, banks, investors, and industry stakeholders.

Our technological expertise spans a broad range of methods, including evaporation, membrane technologies, ion processing, and bioengineering. Currently, we monitor over 52 desalination technologies. Clients from over 40 countries have entrusted us to prepare them for the future of desalination.

As a specialized think tank, we are committed to advancing desalination innovation.

Desalination plant linked to dried wells – Philippines

WELLS in nearby villages have dried up allegedly due to the operation of a desalination plant that converts brackish water into potable water in Barangay Mambaling, Cebu City. Ed Karlon Rama, Cebu City Bantay Dagat Commission executive director, said on Thursday, Nov. 28, 2024, that residents of Barangays Mambaling and Basak Pardo, through their respective barangay councils, reported to the Coastline Management Board (CMB) about cases of existing wells drying up. During the executive session on Wednesday, Nov. 27, there was also a mention of water wells drying up in Barangay San Nicolas. According to Rama, who is also chairman […]

Jordan turns to desalination to tackle water scarcity – Jordan

Regional instability is affecting Jordan’s ability to access much needed external water sources, forcing the kingdom to turn to desalination projects, the Minister of Water and Irrigation Muhammad Al-Najjar said yesterday. He emphasised the need for collaborative efforts to devise solutions, implement joint Arab water initiatives, raise awareness about the importance of water conservation and promote effective governance. As one of the world’s most water-scarce countries, Jordan is expediting a national project to desalinate water from the Red Sea to meet its growing water needs, improve irrigation efficiency, and enhance water awareness across various sectors, he added. Under a 1994 […]

Samsung C&T bags US$2.8bn Qatar power and desalination plant project – South Korea

The contractor said it had received a letter of award for the Qatar Facility E Independent Water and Power Production Project last month. The project involves the construction of the a 2,415MW power plant, combined with a 110 MGID (millions of gallons of water per day) desalination plant and is worth US$2.84 billion. Samsung C&T was awarded the project after a consortium of Japanese and Korean power companies jointly won the rights to develop the facility for Qatar General Electricity and Water Corporation (Kahramaa). Japan’s Sumitomo Corporation and Shikoku Electric Power Co make up the consortium alongside Korea Southern Power […]

Saudi Arabia revolutionises desalination efficiency and bolsters water sustainability by 80% – KSA

Text copieSaudi Arabia has made strides in water desalination, improving efficiency by 80 per cent and slashing costs by 50 per cent in recent years, according to Mansour bin Hilal Al-Mushaiti, the Kingdom’s Deputy Minister of Environment, Water, and Agriculture. Daily desalination output has surged to 6 million cubic metres, contributing to a total capacity of 11.3 million cubic metres. This leap forward has been made possible by expanding water transmission networks, now spanning over 14,000 km, equivalent to double the length of the Nile River, overcoming challenging terrains to deliver water nationwide. The Kingdom’s strategic water storage capacity has […]

Green light for South Australian desalination – Australia

The South Australian Government has approved plans to build a new desalination plant at Billy Lights Point on the Eyre Peninsula.  The State Government said that Eyre Peninsula’s future water security is at serious risk with water levels running low in the region’s underground aquifers.  There are approximately 35,000 SA Water customers on the Eyre Peninsula, with around 75 per cent of the region’s drinking water sourced from these groundwater basins.   Plans for the project were recommended for approval by the State Commission Assessment Panel and were subsequently approved by Blair Boyer under delegation. As part of the approval, 22 […]

Facile constructing ZrO2 nanoparticles equipped with high conductivity carbon networks as pseudocapacitive anodes for removing phosphorus – China

Capacitive deionization (CDI) displays the merits of having eco-friendliness and low energy consumption when capturing phosphorus. However, traditional carbon electrodes often suffer from the limitation that phosphorus uptake sites are insufficient. Herein, a novel ZrO2 nanoparticle equipped with a highly conductive carbon network (NZrC) was fabricated by a facile co-pyrolysis process. Na2EDTA can provide additional carbon backbones, N species, and metal chelation sites. Zr-MOF was applied as the ZrO2 precursor with abundant phosphorus trapping sites. The results suggested that Na2EDTA favors improving the ZrO2 dispersion, mesoporous channel formation, and pseudocapacitive behavior. NZrC-21 at 1.2 V displays low energy consumption and the […]
