Abstract :
Water resources in our world are immense
since 97% of the earth’s surface is Sea water.
Unfortunately less than 1% of the available water
resources are potable or sweet water fit for human
consumption. Sadly, Over 30% of the worlds countries
with substantial population are water deficit countries.
The WHO ( World Health Organization) has stipulated a
Minimum of 50 liters per head as the minimum
requirement of sweet /fresh water for an individual to
maintain a level of Hygiene but except some developed
countries most face perineal shortages as a result the
residents of these underdeveloped and developing
countries are able to source only a fraction of the WHO
recommendation for clean water for their personal use
Removal of salt from sea water has been known for many
centuries as a concept and practice but only recently have
various processes been developed by Researchers,
Scientists and Engineers to commercially process sea
water to yield sweet water or potable water. The article
below describes briefly the several available processes
and technologies to process sea water to yield sweet water
in commercial quantities and at the most economical
operating conditions.
