Beginners' Guide to Seawater Desalination (SWRO) Technology & Applications
Published on by Nick Nicholas, App Eng/Technical Director at Genesis Water Technologies, Inc. in Technology
If you keep up with global news with any consistency, you will have heard about water shortages occurring all over the world. There are millions of people left without regular access to clean drinking water.
This shortage is due in part to the lack of freshwater on the earth in areas of large population centers. Even though a majority of the earth is covered in water, very little of it is actually useable to humans, animals, and land-based plants. With about seven billion people on the planet, humans utilize a lot of water, for both non-potable and potable applications.
Groundwater and glacier water are actually the two largest sources, however, they may not be easy to get to or use. We do already use groundwater to an extent, but some of it is so deep it’s too expensive to utilize. No one is particularly keen to start melting glaciers with the looming threat of global warming hanging over our heads.
Well, maybe we don’t need freshwater to start out with...
The oceans and seas cover 71% of the earth’s surface and they hold 96% of the total water on the planet. The old phrase, “Water, water everywhere, but not a drop to drink,” doesn’t have to apply anymore with the utilization of seawater desalination.
In this article, learn more about the seawater desalination process and its applications for communities and organizations to combat the effects of water scarcity.
