Saudi Aramco awards contract to develop $690m seawater desalination plant – Riyadh, KSA

The seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant includes a water distribution network, and is a part of the Jafurah gas development scheme.

The project has a design capacity of 80,000 cubic meters a day, and includes power and utility facilities, according to a MEED report.

It also contains an extensive water distribution network component, identified to extend 200 km.

By 2023, the plant is expected to have a power capacity of 270-320 megawatts.

BMC’s desalination plant project likely to begin this year – Mumbai, India

Mumbai at present gets its daily intake water from seven lakes. Their catchment areas are filled during monsoon, following which, water is being supplied across the city through pipelines. Though the city has a demand for 4,400 millions of litres per day (MLD) of water daily, BMC can only supply around 3,800 MLD — a shortfall of 500-600 MLD.

Abengoa starts producing drinking water at Jazlah desalination plant (Jubail 3A) – Saudi Arabia

The plant has started producing drinking water at 25 % of its capacity and is successfully meeting the quality parameters specified in the contract.

It will have a total capacity of 600,000 m³/day, the same as Rabigh 3, the largest desalination plant in commercial operation using reverse osmosis technology in Saudi Arabia, also developed by Abengoa.

It will also be the world’s largest desalination plant to be partially powered by solar photovoltaic renewable energy.

Abengoa, an international company that applies innovative technology solutions for sustainable development in the infrastructure, […]

Water board set to vote on desalination plant – Mexico

A source with knowledge of the proposal said the proposed desalination plant would be located on the Sea of Cortez in Mexico and the water would be pumped to Arizona, not traded in exchange for more Colorado River water as has been previously speculated. The proposal includes a first phase providing an estimated 300,000 acre-feet of water with two possible additional phases, the source said. The project, which would require federal approval, would also utilize solar power.

The novel desalination technologies making potable water more accessible

This ’solar distiller‚ utilizes a slowly rotating cylinder by a solar-powered DC motor and, upon testing a prototype, could achieve up to 400 percent more power efficiency than traditional devices.

A novel desalination membrane:

Researchers from the University of Jordan, Arab Open University, and King Abdullah University of Science and Technology designed a method that enables evaporation and, therefore, desalination at ambient temperatures of [about] 25 degrees celsius (°C). Thus not requiring heating or high pressure as costly comparable devices do.
