This slide presentation outlines information on Singapore's 1st Municipal Desalination Plant. It is the
world's second largest seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) plant, the
world's only SWRO plant of this scale to use
in-filter dissolved air flotation (DAF), the
world's largest in-filter DAF, the
world's most cost efficient desalination plant, and it is
one 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 cycle
in Singapore and diversifying sources. The focus of this presentation is on Singapore's efforts to to meet 10% demand using seawater
desalination and using a Public Private Partnership that would: encourage the private sector to
participate in non-core services;
allow private sector innovation (i.e.,
private sector can select most cost effective
technology, site, procure or generate energy,
etc.); and,
optimize capital and operating costs in
competitive 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.
