Low-capacity Reverse Osmosis Solar Desalination Plant

Abstract 28 suitable localities of Mexico were identified in order to install seawater desalination plants by means of reverse osmosis process. The proposed desalination plant was acquired by the IMPULSA IV program and it is powered by solar PV panels. The procedure followed was to search information about localities with drinking water shortages, low population, salt or brackish water availability and a good solar irradiation level.
