Israel covers its 85% of annual municipal and industrial water consumption from water desalination plants.
Israelâs technology treats water with natural biological filtration, aquifer water treatment plants, and ultraviolet water treatment technologies. The technology treats almost 90% of used water and redirects it to irrigation pipelines to irrigate the drier areas of the country.
According to the third issue of the Chamber of Minesâ e-newsletter for 2022, electricity consumption in the current process has been reduced by 40% through an innovative energy recovery system.
The cumulative production since 2013 has now reached over 83 million cubic metres.
Nearly 75.29 million litres of water is being supplied to the southern parts of the city daily now. Though the plant has a capacity to treat 110 mld of seawater, production is restricted to balance more drawal of water from the reservoirs. Water supply has not been stopped as the work is being taken up in phases.
German industrial group Butting has been commissioned to supply a modular, prefabricated desalination plant for Israel that can produce 200,000 cubic metres of drinking water from the Mediterranean a year.
According to TotalEnergies, the 17-megawatt peak solar project will be the first of its kind to be installed in the region. It produces annually over 30,000 megawatt-hours (MWh) of green electricity, or more than a third of the desalination plantâs daily consumption, enabling it to avoid close to 300,000 tons of CO2 emissions.Source)
Officials of the National Water Supply and Drainage Board recently visited the Jaffna peninsula to inspect ongoing projects
âŠRanatunga said that Sri Lanka received the backing of the Asian Development Bank (ADB) to implement the project meant to turn seawater to drinking water.
Transnet National Ports Authority (TNPA) is looking into setting up water desalination plants at eight major ports along South Africaâs coastline.
These desalination plants, if developed, will form part of a water purchase agreement between TNPA and the selected service provider, while the land and water space would âcontinue to be owned and controlledâ by Transnet.
Water supply to parts of south Chennai will be disrupted till Tuesday evening as work has been taken up to repair a damaged pipeline in the 110 mld desalination plant at Nemmeli.
Mais, de plus en plus, des usines sont construites pour fournir de lâeau utilisĂ©e pour lâirrigation des plantations. Câest le cas de la station de dessalement de dessalement dâAgadir (au Maroc), actuellement en construction, avec une capacitĂ© attendue de 275â000 m3 par jour. Une partie de lâeau traitĂ©e, câest-Ă -dire 125â000 m3 par jour, alimentera un systĂšme dâirrigation dans la plaine de Chtouka, au centre-ouest du Maroc.
En Afrique du Sud, lâun des pays africains les plus touchĂ©s par les pĂ©nuries dâeau ces derniĂšres annĂ©es, Lucky Star, un fabricant de conserves de poissons sâest dotĂ© de deux usines de dessalement dâeau de mer privĂ©es [âŠ]
Climate change and unsustainable water management are leaving lakes dried up all over the Middle East and beyond, but the Israeli government is hopeful it has a solution: It plans to pump water from the Mediterranean sea, take the salt out of it and send it across the country to top up the lake when needed.
