This remarkable desalination device, made from 170,000 recycled plastic bottles, runs on mechanical power from waves as it floats in the ocean, and creates up to 13,000 gallons (53,000 liters) of fresh water a day â while discharging far less concentrated salty brine than other designs.
California American Water, the nationâs largest publicly traded water and wastewater company, plans to build the plant to pump ocean water, desalinate it and provide drinking water to 100,000 people on the Monterey Peninsula. The largely Latino, agricultural community of Castroville would also receive the water at a discount.Â
The plant would produce about 4.8 million gallons of water per day when it begins operating, with the possibility of increasing production later. California American Water hopes to have it operating by the end of 2027. The water company is seeking to bolster [âŠ]
The Birkat Miriam plant will produce 100 million cubic meters of desalinated water annually, improving the reliability of Israelâs water supply to Haifa, the Western Galilee and Upper Galilee regions.
Birkat Miriam will join Israelâs other large scale desalination plants in operation â Ashkelon, Ashdod, Palmachim, Hadera and Sorek 1 â while IDE also constructs Sorek 2. These desalination plants are part of an Israeli government effort to increase the amount of desalinated water in the countryâs overall water resources. The water contribution from the Western Galilee plant will bring total production of desalination plants [âŠ]
An irrigation community has built a 786 kW floating solar array on a small water reservoir in Murcia, Spain. The facility will provide power for a solar water pumping system, a desalination unit, and the community itself.
Comunidad de Regantes de Ăguilas, a Spanish irrigation community, recently completed the installation of a floating PV plant on one of its irrigation ponds in the municipality of Ăguilas, in the southern Spanish region of Murcia.
Anglo American (LON: AAL) secured on Wednesday a supply agreement to meet almost half the water requirements of its Los Bronces copper mine in Chile with desalinated water from 2025.
The deal with Aguas Pacifico will allow the miner to bring ocean water to Los Broncesâ recirculation systems, with the goal of not drawing fresh water from the area where the mine is located.
In this first phase, the company will use 500 litres per second of desalinated water to cover 45% of [âŠ]
Die Vereinten Nationen definieren Wasserknappheit als einen fĂŒr den menschlichen Bedarf nicht ausreichenden Zugang zu Trinkwasser auf Grund mangelhafter Infrastruktur. Die Weltgesundheitsorganisation WHO gibt an, dass in Zeiten von Krisen ein Mensch tĂ€glich je nach Klimazone und ErnĂ€hrung zwischen 7,5 und 15 Liter Trink- und SĂŒĂwasser benötige, zum Trinken und fĂŒr Minimalhygiene. Fast die HĂ€lfte der Welt lebt bereits in von Wasserknappheit gefĂ€hrdeten Regionen, und diese Zahl könnte sich bis 2050 auf zwischen 4,8 und 5,7 Milliarden Menschen erhöhen. Die UNO befĂŒrchtet, dass dies bis [âŠ]
IDEâs Western Galilee project to be Israelâs seventh-largest desalination plant, producing 100 million cubic meters of water annually.
The Western Galilee desalination plant, to be named Birkat Miriam, will join Israelâs other large scale desalination plants in operation â Ashkelon, Ashdod, Palmachim, Hadera and Sorek 1 â while IDE also constructs Sorek 2. These desalination plants are part of a government effort to increase the amount of desalinated water in the countryâs overall water resources. The water contribution from the Western Galilee plant will bring total production of desalination plants in Israel to almost [âŠ]
About 30 percent of construction work of the water desalination plant to supply 1.2 million gallons of clean drinking water per day to the residents of Gwadar city has been completed.
This was stated on Monday by Project Director of the under-construction Water Desalination Plant Dawood Baloch. He said it was very gratifying that the work on the project was going on at a fast pace without any hindrance.
The advanced model will also optimise energy production of the gas turbines at the Jebel Ali Power Plant and Water Desalination Complex, the largest single-site natural gas power generation facility in the world at a capacity of 9,547 MW.
âThe innovative model for fog monitoring and forecasting will enhance energy productions operations. It will be integrated within Dewaâs power planning and operations. This supports the Dubai Clean Energy Strategy 2050 and the Dubai Net Zero Carbon Emissions Strategy 2050 to provide 100 per cent of Dubaiâs total power production capacity from clean energy sources by [âŠ]
As a leader of desalination in the Kingdom, SAWACO owns and operates several water production facilities with over 250,000 mÂł/day (62.5 MGD) desalination capacity. SOJECO, a seawater desalination plant, is the third water production facility established by SAWACO in the region that supplies 16,500 mÂł/day (4.3 MGD) of potable grade water to Jeddah Industrial Cities 2 &3 , factories, hospitals, and private housing complexes. The introduction of the Pani platform will address optimizing the facilityâs sea water reverse osmosis (SWRO) operations, reducing downtime, increasing production, and extending equipment life.
