„A 450 mega litre plant can cost up to R15 billion. The maintenance costs of that is also very high. A 150 mega litre plant, the maintenance costs can cost round about R380 million a year, but we must measure that against no water. Expensive water versus no water as well. Desalination will have an environmental impact because we need to manage the brine. We will pull in the best intellect in the country, even worldwide to support us, to help us to find the right solutions, so that the actions today don’t impact our future generations,“ says Bredell.

SEOUL, South Korea – An Integrated Waste-to-Water Process (IWWP) has been developed by Doosan Lentjes and the water division of Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction.

Much like thermal desalination units that off-take heat from co-located power plants, the process would direct steam from the incineration of municipal solid waste to be used in the seawater desalination process.

The company said that using the technology, around 300 tons of municipal waste has the potential to generate enough potable water for 100,000 people.

Thee solar power needed to power desalination will be provided primarily by the Shaikh Mohammad Bin Rashid Al Maktoum Solar Power Park in Dubai that is expected to eventually deliver 25 per cent of Dubai’s total power with 5,000MW of new electricity.

WATER treatment firm Hyflux will be building three desalination plants in Saudi Arabia.

Hyflux, through its wholly-owned subsidiary, Hydrochem Saudi, signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MOU) with Saudi Arabia’s state-owned Saline Water Conversion Corporation (SWCC) on Sunday.

This followed a public tender to design, build, supply, test and commission the seawater reverse osmosis desalination plants in Duba, Wajh and Haql, along the Red Sea coast in the western region of the kingdom.

Veolia, through its subsidiaries OTV and SADE, has been awarded a €7.6 million contract to design and build an iron removal water treatment plant in Dakar for Senegal’s water utility Société Nationale des Eaux du Sénégal (SONES).
