Desalination & CSP
Main drivers for new desalination projects
 Extent of water gap
 Financial strength of country (e.g. % of GDP spent for desalination)
 Experience with existing desalination facilities
 Attractiveness to investors (political stability)
 Development aid
Main drivers for new CSP projects
 Peaking energy prices and undesired dependency on fossil fuel
 Limited availability of fossil fuel sources
 Reduction of carbon footprint
 Attractiveness to investors (political stability)
 Government incentives and regulations

Desalination & CSP
Key considerations for desalination plants
 MED, MSF and SWRO desalination technologies are well-proven
 Significant improvements achieved (i.e. energy efficiency)
 Capital and energy intensive
 Footprint of secondary importance
Key considerations CSP plants
 CSP still in development status, including storage capacities
 Operational constraints due to limited solar radiation, back-up required
 Capital and energy intensive
 Footprint significant
 Is CSP the bottleneck?
6543P07/FICHT-6981353-v1

Desalination & CSP
Design constraints for desalination plants
 Desalination plants are best operated at base load mode
Design constraints for CSP plants
 Variable steam supply from CSP depending on solar irradiance (day/night)
 Fossil-fired back-up power plant
 Expensive heat storage
 Maximum live steam temperature is 370°C (compared to 480-560°C)
 Relative large footprint, especially for higher Solar Multiple (SM) Plants
 Largest CSP capacity to date ~ 100 MWe

MED: Key design considerations (I)
Capacity
 Unit production capacity (current maxium: 38,000 m³/d)
 Number of duty / standby units
Energy demand
 Electrical energy demand (1.5 to 2.5 kWh/m³)
 Heat demand (order of magnitude: 70 kWh/m³)
 Steam demand calls for cogeneration of water and power
Temperature profile
 Temperature of heating steam (upper process temperature)
 Seawater temperature (lower process temperature)
 Number of effects (performance ratio)
6543P07/FICHT-6981353-v1

MED: Key design considerations (II)
Durability
 Plant availability and service time
 Material selection (e.g. Titanium tubes in top rows and alu brass tubes in
below rows)
Operational features
 Robust in regard to seawater salinity and bio-fouling potential
 High distillate quality
Supplier market
 Major MED Suppliers: SIDEM (Veolia); others are following

SWRO: RO section of the Singapore 136,000 m³/d Plant
6543P07/FICHT-6981353-v1
12
SWRO: Key design considerations (I)
Operational features
 Large membrane area and narrow flow cross section cause
susceptibility to bio-fouling
 Pre-treatment process to be adopted to the seawater conditions
 Seawater salinity and temperature affect the power demand
 No perfect salt rejection – usually a second pass required
Energy
 Electrical energy demand (order of magnitude: 4 kWh/m³)
 Absence of heat demand allows for stand alone configuration
 Method of energy recovery (Pelton turbine, turbocharger or isobaric system)
6543P07/FICHT-6981353-v1
13
SWRO: Key design considerations (II)
Capacity and plant design
 Plant capacity (current maximum: 500,000 m³/d)
 Modularity allows a high number of process configurations (e.g. train or
centre design)
Durability
 Plant availability and service time
 Material selection (e.g. super duplex for high pressure section)
Supplier market
 Major Suppliers: Befesa, Cobra/Tedagua, Degremont (Suez), GE, Hyflux,
IDE, OTV (Veolia)

Conclusions
 Desalination has the potential to close the water gap (basically)
 Limitations may arise from environmental and financial aspects
 In most evaluation cases, SWRO appears more favorable, however certain
circumstances may call for MED
 Energy is the major cost item for desalinated water
 Future developments of electricity cost will highly influence water production
