ItN Nanovation AG obtains a binding order for water treatment plants for the Iranian market

ItN Nanovation AG (ISIN DE000A0JL461) has received a binding order for peripheral water treatment plants for Iran. The order value amounts to over € 2m. The ordered water treatment plants are of the types „CER@SENIC“ and „CER@WELL“. „CER@SENIC“ removes particularly arsenic from ground and drinking water. In the province of Kerman in Iran, a testing facility has just been put into operation successfully, allowing to remove the arsenic contained in the water almost completely. „CER@WELL“ is used to clean soiled tap water in buildings and removes dirt, germs, bacteria and nitrate. The delivery of the plants is to start still […]

Saudi’s Shoabia 4 desalination project to be supervised by Pöyry

…

Months after Doosan secured the Shoaiba 4 desalination development and the Saline Water Conversion Company (SWCC) has awarded Pöyry with the owner’s engineer services assignment for the project.

As part of the arrangement, Pöyry’s will review the contractor’s engineering and supervise construction, erection and commissioning.

In April SWCC awarded Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction the US$422 million contract to build the 400,000 m3/day reverse osmosis desalination facility. Originally the development, in the pipeline for several years, was planned for Jeddah city but was then changed to Shoaiba, a costal area 50 miles to the south. […]

16 new desalination plants – capacity of 473,000 m³ – Egypt

… Moustafa Madbouly, the Minister of Housing, Utilities, and Urban Communities, said that the implementation of 16 water desalination stations is taking place. The stations’ capacity is estimated at 473,000 cubic metres per day and will be built in five governorates. Madbouly said that the stations aim to serve the new communities and coastal cities underway, including New Alamein and East Port Said.

Madbouly explained that the governorates where desalination will be taking place include Matruh, North and South Sinai, the Red Sea, and Port Said. He emphasised that the expansion in desalination stations is a result of […]

Libyan Iron and Steel Company sent operational materials to the desalination plant in Tobruk

…

The company reported that it had equally shared its operational materials with the Tobruk desalination plant and sent the due quantities to Tobruk. The Tobruk plant has exhausted its operational materials and was on the cusp of shutting down completely, which would cause a humanitarian disaster in the eastern Libyan city.

Gold Coast Tugun Desalination Plant increases production – Australia

…

The Mudgeeraba water treatment plant has been temporarily shut down for critical infrastructure maintenance. Seqwater Acting Chief Executive Officer Jim Prus, said, “This is about being smart about how we use our water grid assets in the most effective and efficient way possible.

“The desalination plant is the best option available to ensure the ongoing supply of a safe and reliable water supply while maintenance is conducted at the Mudgeeraba plant.” The Gold Coast Desalination Plant (GCDP) will produce up to 60 million litres of drinking water per day to supply more than 170,000 residents on […]

Tender to produce extra 500Ml of water for Cape Town – South Africa

…

“Our intent is to both drive down collective usage to 500Ml per day and to ensure that there is always at 500Ml/day of water in production,” Mayor Patricia de Lille told reporters on Thursday. She said the city had decided to take the most pessimistic view of the drought, and hoped to have the first desalination plant on line by the end of October. The city had reduced water consumption from around 1000Ml a day in the past year to the latest figure of 610Ml a day. This was still too much, given the poor prospects of […]

Tender floated for ‘technical advisory’ services for water desalination project in Wadi – Dayaqah – Muscat – Oman

…

Oman Power and Water Procurement Company (OPWP) on Monday floated an initial tender seeking bids from consultancy firms for providing ‘technical advisory’ services for developing an Independent Water Project (IWP) in Wadi Dayqah (Qurayyat) near Muscat.

The desalination capacity of the project is yet to be determined. OPWP will issue the tender document between August 21 and 31, while the last date for submitting bids will be October 2, according to the tender floated by the state-owned OPWP. …

Morocco will build a seawater desalination plant in the Casablanca-Settat region

…

The feasibility study and the institutional set-up of the project are currently being finalised, Charafate Afailal, secretary of state for water, was quoted as saying in a Morocco World News report. “With increasing demand and insufficient local resources, the only recourse to reduce the deficit in industrial or agricultural drinking water is desalination of seawater,” he said.

The studies carried out to date show that the average volumes of water that could be desalinated by 2030 to ensure the supply of drinking water are estimated at almost 425 million cu m, the report said. The construction […]

Zu viel Nitrat: Trinkwasser könnte teurer werden – heute.de

….

3. Verfahren, um Nitrat zu entfernen Verschiedene hochtechnische Verfahren sind die letzte Möglichkeit, um Nitrat aus dem Grundwasser zu entfernen. Die sogenannte Denitrifizierung kann mit Hilfe einer Umkehrosmose, einer Aktivkohle-Absorption oder einer Ozon-Oxidation durchgeführt werden. Das allerdings hat seinen Preis. Zusatzkosten von bis zu 76 Cent pro Kubikmeter Trinkwasser kämen auf den Verbraucher zu.

Graphene Membrane Withstands Ultrahigh Pressure, Shows Desalination Potential

…

Rohit Karnik, an associate professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology’s Department of Engineering, said the discovery could open graphene to a number of new applications, including desalination, where filtration membranes that can withstand high-pressure flows  can more efficiently remove salt from seawater.

“This is a fundamental study at this point, and what it shows is the possibility that one can design graphene membranes that can withstand high pressures,” Karnik said during an exclusive interview with R&D Magazine. . “This in itself doesn’t immediately lead to any application but it is basically a demonstration that you can design […]
