Cannon Artes wins contract to build massive Egypt desalination plant – Egypt

The plant will be fed with water from the Red Sea and will be treated to provide high-purity demineralised water to feed high-pressure steam boilers as well as low-salinity make-up water for cooling towers.

It will occupy an area of 714m2 – like a football stadium – with an overall capacity of 30,000 cu m/day, stated Punzo.

The challenges facing desal plants in Chile’s north

Currently there are 24 desalination plants in operation in Chile with combined capacity of 8,000 liters per second (l/s), with 75% of production going to the mining industry, according to the country’s desalination association ACADES.

Capacity is expected to increase to 10,000l/s by the end of this year, and could reach 40,000l/s by the end of the decade.

Lecturing at Dresden University – EPC in and for desalination projects in practice

On February 3rd, 2023, Claus Mertes gave two successful lectures on the topic of “EPC in for desalination projects in practice” at the University of Dresden. The lectures were well attended and received positive feedback from the students and faculty.

Claus Mertes is an expert in the field of desalination and has extensive experience in managing EPC (Engineering, Procurement, and Construction) projects. During his lectures, he shared his practical insights and real-world examples to help the students understand the various aspects of EPC in desalination projects.

The students were especially impressed by […]

The British company Solar Water will install a solar water desalination plant -Tunisia

On this occasion, the company’s managers presented the technical studies for the project to implement a solar water desalination plant in southern Tunisia. This plant will have a production capacity of 200 million liters of water per day using solar energy and state-of-the-art technologies that meet current international standards.

For an envelope of 600 million dollars, this is the first project of its kind in Africa.

Carlsbad Desalination Plant Hits Milestone: 100 Billion Gallons Served – San Diago, California, USA

he Claude “Bud” Lewis Carlsbad Desalination Plant has served more than 100 billion gallons of water over the past seven years — a milestone reached in late October, the San Diego County Water Authority and plant owners announced Tuesday.

The plant, which produces 50 million gallons of drinking water daily, enough for 400,000 homes meeting 10% of San Diego County’s water demand, is the largest in the United States.

MOL and EnviroNor sign MoU to collaborate on floating desalination vessel – Norway

Floating Desalination Vessel is a floating infrastructure vessel equipped with seawater desalination equipment using reverse osmosis (RO) membranes, which removes impurities other than water, to produce fresh water (drinking water) and supply it to shore.

Compared to a seawater desalination plant on land, FDVs do not require the acquisition of land and is built by converting a used ship, so it offers advantages such as the ability to start water supply in a short time.

Where Rising Seas Threaten Drinking Water, Scientists Look for Affordable Solutions- Pennsylvania-USA

Rising oceans bring more than high tides and nuisance flooding to coastal zones. They also carry salt water into inland aquifers where dissolved salts can spoil drinking water.

A new research effort at the University of Pennsylvania aims to identify vulnerable water systems along the Atlantic and Gulf coasts where rising seas pose water quality risks and develop strategies that can make utilities more resilient to saltwater intrusion.

“I think […]
