Seawater Desalination

Much of the worlds arid land areas suffer from a lack of freshwater. In some third world countries where water supplies exist, the quality of the only available sources of fresh water is so poor that health problems are endemic and industrial activity is non-existent.  

With the development of advanced desalination technology, there has been an enormous improvement in the quality of life for populations formally suffering from the lack of freshwater. Indeed, the ability to provide freshwater from the sea, using Reverse Osmosis technology, has raised living standards for millions of people by supplying sanitary drinking water and contributing to the growth of industrial and commercial development.  

Reverse Osmosis desalination technology has also contributed to tremendous growth in tourism and vacation industries in island coastal communities. Hotel, Resort and Condominium development has been booming in areas of the world that otherwise could not support such projects due in part to an inadequate supply of fresh drinking water and water for irrigation of landscaping and golf course fairways and greens. 

Water Treatment Systems, Inc. offers sea water RO systems in sizes ranging from 10,000 GPD to multiple 1 MGD System Trains. The system pictured on the right, above, is operating at a high profile resort in the Bahamas and produces 150,000 gallons per day. The unique design was customized to accept two multi-stage centrifugal pumps mounted in parallel. One pump/motor is in standby, ready for easy changeover if the the primary pump/motor needs maintenance.  The centrifugal pumps eliminate the need for additional skids with PD pumps that take up more space. The twin 60,000 GPD systems pictured on the left, above, are making potable water for a resort on Bermuda. All WTS systems include integrated flush and cleaning systems. All WTS sea water reverse osmosis systems are delivered to the job site with chemical injection systems for our highly recommended brand of antiscalant chemical.
