Global capacity grew by 43% in 2007 (Desallement)

mardi 4 novembre 2008

Worldwide growth in the use of desalination to produce a reliable supply of drinking water rose sharply over the past year indicating that desalination technologies are being used more than ever to address the global thirst for new sources of potable water, according to new statistics released today by the International Desalination Association (IDA).

According to the 2008-2009 edition of IDA’s Desalination Yearbook, published by Global Water Intelligence, the amount of global contracted (planned) capacity grew by 43 percent in 2007, or 6.8 million cubic meters per day (m³/d), up from 4.7 million m³/d in total contracted capacity in 2006. This increase of 2.1 million m³/d is enough to supply potable water to more than 50 million people.
