Adelaide’s desalination project involved the construction of two 50gl capacity sea water reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination plants and a 20km transfer pipeline.
The A$1.83bn plant was constructed at Lonsdale, near Port Stanvac, approximately 30km south of the Adelaide central business district (CBD). The plant is also known as Port Stanvac Desalination plant
Premier Annastacia Palaszczuk told parliament on Tuesday the new desalination plant would be delivered by 2035 after cabinet endorsed the 30-year water strategy.
The second desalination plant in Nemmeli of 150 MLD is nearing completion. THe trial run will begin by end of Oct and water distribution of 150 MLD..
The National Oil Corporation (NOC) announced on Tuesday the restart of the water desalination plant in the flood-hit Derna after undergoing maintenance work.
The device is fundamentally a solar desalination machine that takes in salt water and heats it with natural sunlight. What makes the machine efficient is its ability to circulate water in swirling eddies similar to larger „thermohaline“ circulation that happens in the ocean. This movement, coupled with the heat of the sun, results in water evaporating and leaving the salt behind. The water vapor can then be collected and condensed to be used as pure drinking water.
One of these supports is realized through collaboration with the State-Owned Enterprise (BUMN) in the construction sector, PT Indra Karya (Persero). Through this collaboration, Bank Mandiri distributed assistance worth IDR 2.1 billion for the construction of seawater desalination facilities around the fish auction site (TPI) Labuan Bajo, East Nusa Tenggara (NTT).
A team of researchers from MIT and Shanghai Jiao Tong University has developed a solar-powered desalination device that is resistant to salt clogging and is capable of converting seawater into fresh drinking water.

The utility, equipped with reverse osmosis technology, will have a daily capacity of 570,000 cu m per day to supply 2 million people in the cities of Riyadh and Qassim once commercially operational in 2024.
“For the first time, it is possible for water, produced by sunlight, to be even cheaper than tap water,” said co-author Lenan Zhang, a research scientist at MIT’s Device Research Laboratory. The device would also last for several years before requiring replacement parts.
