Operations Underway to Expand Khuzestan Desalination Capacity – Iran

Operations are underway to build a desalination facility in the city of Hendijan in Khuzestan Province, the head of the provincial Water and Wastewater Company said.

“The new plant, estimated to cost $50 million, is expected to supply 70,000 people in rural districts with piped water,” Mohammad Reza Karaminejad was quoted as saying by ISNA. 

With a capacity of 25,000 cubic meters per day, the facility will be completed in 24 months by domestic engineers, he added.

Orange County Desalination Plant Wins Key Approval – USA

A desalination plant is moving forward in Orange County with California Coastal Commission approval just a few months after another, uch more expensive project, failed the same test.

Some of the experts that testified at the CCC hearing on the Doheny plant called comparisons between the two projects “ludicrous.” The Doheny plant will only cost $140 million, rather than $1.4 billion, for example. The Poseidon project was also located in Central Orange County, which is located on top of a large underground aquifer.

Southern California moves forward on desalination plant – Sacramento, California, USA

The plant, which is expected to produce 5 million gallons of drinking water per day, is the first desalination facility that the Coastal Commission has approved since more strict regulations were adopted in 2019.

However, it is still opposed by various groups, including several Sierra Club activists who spoke against the Doheny project at this week’s hearing, when they expressed their concerns about the impact on marine life and the amount of energy required to pump ocean water through the plant’s reverse osmosis filters.

Salton Sea panel favours local desalination option – California, US

By rejecting a $78.4 billion plan to desalinate seawater in Mexico and pump it to California in favour of a local $17 billion initiative, the panel also hopes to accelerate the restoration of the Salton Sea’s salinity levels to historic levels, while slashing the estimated annual CO2e emissions of the project by nearly 90%.

Amid historic drought, California approves $140 mln desalination plant – US

Oct 13 (Reuters) – California regulators unanimously approved a $140 million desalination plant on Thursday, offering a guideline for how the state can convert ocean water into drinking water amid the worst drought in 1,200 years.

The plant, expected to produce 5 million gallons of drinking water per day, enough for some 40,000 people, will serve a small water utility in Orange County, just south of Los Angeles.

State commission approves desalination plant in Dana Point – California

The Dana Point desalination plant would produce about 5 million gallons of potable water daily with the ability to eventually generate 15 million gallons a day. But an increase in volume would require further review and a larger pipeline, the report said.

California Coastal Commission Considering New Desalination Plant in Orange County – USA

The water district says Doheny State Beach is drought proof. The Pacific Ocean could provide as much five million gallons a day of drinking water.

Currently the district imports about 85% of its water for some 35,000 customers.

The other 15% comes from this plant where unusable storm creek runoff is treated through reverse osmosis then sent to homes and businesses.
