Freshwater is a basic need, and so wastewater treatment and desalination of saline water are important to make more potable water accessible to the needed populations. This process removes excess salt and also decreases the amount of minerals from the water. Let’s see in detail, what a desalination process is and what are the different desalination methods.
What is the Desalination Process?
The process of desalination, also called desalting, involves removing dissolved salts from seawater, brackish, municipal wastewater, and even groundwater with high mineral content.
This process makes water fit for human consumption, irrigation, industrial applications, and more. The processes for industrial desalination are sometimes expensive, making them useful only where it is not economically viable to get fresh water in any other way.
