Let’s discuss seawater desalination technology
Thread Content
With the growing scarcity of freshwater resources, seawater desalination is increasingly being utilized. I hope we can have an open discussion on the process, from pretreatment to reverse osmosis
There aren’t many large-scale projects these days. When will we reach a level of water shortage like in Saudi Arabia and Israel?
Seawater desalination primarily involves the removal of salts, and reverse osmosis membrane technology is most commonly used for this purpose. The cost of these membranes accounts for over 50% of the total cost of the entire treatment process; therefore, it is crucial to protect them. Thus, in addition to selecting the right membranes, their pretreatment also plays a very important role in the entire process.
LZ, it’s better to be more specific when bringing up topics. The processes used for seawater desalination are basically already well-established; I’m not sure what you want to discuss
It’s better to choose more sophisticated topics, such as the desalination of water for marine boilers, whether it should be converted into potable water, or used as irrigation water.
I think this question can be addressed by consulting Dubai; all the fresh water there is obtained through seawater purification. It is said that maintaining a single green plant in Dubai costs 20,000 yuan per year. . .
Seawater desalination technology will have great prospects in the future; we are **just at the beginning.
