      Hi Ed! Thank you - Desalination is a pretty cool process! Our desalination plants meet stringent environmental protection criteria and are designed to have minimal impact on the surrounding environment. Salt and other impurities which are removed from seawater during the desalination process are returned to the ocean via diffusers, mixing quickly with the seawater to have minimal impact on the surrounding marine environment (meeting all environmental compliance requirements).

      Hi Terry, we're glad to hear that you found this information interesting 🙂 We have additional information at bit.ly/3hrqTMT which also touches on the journey of salt in this process. We did explore alternate salt options and unfortunately they were deemed as economically nonviable due to land requirements, cost, transport and quality requirements. As such the best outcome is returning salt to the sea in accordance with environmental protection criteria. Regards ~ Lara

    • @Zzudwa
      @Zzudwa 4 місяці тому

      It's not really an answer tbh.
      How exactly you maintaining the process of dumping the salt back into the ocean and why exactly do you consider it as an environmentally safe option?
      Why simply selling salt products to consumers isn't a financially reasonable option?

    • @Watercorpwa
      @Watercorpwa 4 місяці тому

      Thanks for your follow-up questions @Zzudwa - Around 40% of the water that goes through our desalination plants comes out as fresh drinking water. The remainder is pumped back into the ocean through ocean outfall. As it is more salty than normal seawater, special diffusers ensure it mixes quickly and thoroughly back into the sea. Outfall diffusers in Australia are designed so that salty brine does not harm the environment - Our diffusers are 500m out to sea where ocean tides and currents continue to mix with the concentrated water. Within 50m of the diffuser outlet, the concentrate is back to normal seawater salinity levels. We continue to monitor the ocean environment and report to relevant environmental agencies. The requirements for the storage, processing and packaging of salt, for use commercially or by retail, is an example of one of the hindrances to this reuse option at present. We do however continue to explore opportunities to repurpose biproducts from our water supply operations - See some current solutions via www.watercorporation.com.au/Our-water/Environment-and-sustainability.

      Hello @Zzudwa, great question! Our filtering cells undergo regular in-place flushes and cleans during operation, extending their performance for up to 5-10 years. When they finally retire, we're actively researching ways to reuse or recycle them - options include providing it to industries like mining or agriculture for non-potable water use and contributing to construction materials or waste-to-energy.

      Hello, seawater desalination is an expensive system of sourcing water for the community, this is why it's important to implement sustainable energy solutions in desalination operations. Desalination is very important to us here in Western Australia as we've had a decline of ~20% in rainfall to some of our southern regions and a knock-on effect of more than 80% reduction in streamflow into our dams.

      Our apologies! This detail is available on our website; "Now, for the super high-tech section, reverse osmosis or RO. This part of the process requires extremely high pressure. Previously, we were at approximately three bar. We need to get the pressure up to 57 bar. How much is 57 bar? Well, it would push a column of water more than 570 meters vertically up into the air, along with high pressure pumps, we use regenerated pressure energy from the RO process to help generate the 57 bar. It all happens inside these energy recovery devices, which work by capturing the hydraulic energy from the high pressure, RO reject stream levels of seawater inside the rotor. The seawater leaves the device at high pressure and the RO reject at low pressure. If you're one of the small number of viewers that understood all that. Congratulations. For the rest of us, it simply means we recover and reuse most of the energy in a very clever way." ~ Lara
