Desalination Trends The Desalination Market Has Higher Growth Rate
than Any Other Water Market Segment
The 2013 Market Size of US$ 9.8 Billion
Is Projected to Double by 2016
Membrane Desalination – Key Trends
SWRO Desalination Most Commonly Used;
Large - (over 60 MLD) and Mega - (over 200 MLD) Desalination Plants Are the Wave of the Future;
Most Large Urban Coastal Centers Worldwide Have Established a Target to Produce 25 % of their Drinking Water from Desalination;
Research &Development Activities are in 10-Year High – Likely to Yield Breakthroughs in Membrane and Desalination Technologies by 2015;
Large SWRO Projects Are Aiming at Sustainability – Use of Alternative Power Supply Sources is On the Rise

Key Benefits of Desalinated Water
Drought-proof Water Supply
Human Health Benefits – Less Saline and Less Hard Water: Kidney Failure and Goal Bladder Stone Problems Resolved
Removal of oil , bacteria, viruses and other contaminants
Better Taste
Relief and on Over-pumped Aquifers More water for agriculture Reduction of aquifer salinity over time
Recovery of aquifer levels and increase of the yield of household wells
High Quality Water Attractive to High-tech Industry – Semiconductors, Food, Pharmaceutical and Turism
