Desalination Systems
The world's water consumption rate is doubling every 20 years, outpacing by two times the rate of population growth. Desalination using seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) membrane technology has become a viable option for the development of new regional water supplies. Desalination refers to a process that removes excess salt and other minerals from water. Water is desalinated in order to be converted to fresh water suitable for human consumption or irrigation. Sometimes the process produces table salt as a by-product. It is used on many seagoing ships and submarines. Oceans make up 97% of the world's supply of water.
