Full Description

This slide presentation outlines information on Singapore's 1st Municipal Desalination Plant. It is theworld's second largest seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) plant, theworld's only SWRO plant of this scale to usein-filter dissolved air flotation (DAF), theworld's largest in-filter DAF, theworld's most cost efficient desalination plant, and it isone of the lowest specific energy consumption desalination plants. Singapore is considered a water stressed nation and is considering a holistic approach to managing the water cyclein Singapore and diversifying sources. The focus of this presentation is on Singapore's efforts to to meet 10% demand using seawaterdesalination and using a Public Private Partnership that would: encourage the private sector toparticipate in non-core services;allow private sector innovation (i.e.,private sector can select most cost effectivetechnology, site, procure or generate energy,etc.); and,optimize capital and operating costs incompetitive bidding environment. Specific topics outlined of the Tuas Desalination Plant include: process alternatives; intakes; pretreatment; in-filter DAF; process schematic; 1st and 2nd pass reverse osmosis (RO); energy consumption; flow balance overview; post-treatment; and, waste disposal.
