DESALINATION

Desalination refers to the process of removing salt and other minerals from water.The desalinated water is then used for human consumption or in industries. There are

mainly two types of desalination processes: thermal distillation and membrane-based

desalination.

Membrane-based desalination, such as reverse osmosis (RO) technology, uses semi-

permeable membranes and pressure to separate salts from water. Membrane-based

desalination is becoming the desalination technology of choice as it has proven to

reduce overall desalination costs.

Hyflux is acknowledged as a global leader in membrane-based desalination solutions.

Tuaspring Desalination Plant is Singapore’s second

desalination plant. With a designed capacity of

318,500 m3/day of desalinated water, it is the largest

desalination plant in South East Asia.

The plant utilises Hyux’s proprietary Kristal®

ultraltration (UF) membrane technology for the

pre-treatment process and a double pass reverse

osmosis (RO) process to produce water for domestic

and industrial use. This is one of the world’s largestUF installations in a desalination plant.

Yet another innovative solution to enhance the

operational efciency of the plant is the integration of

a 411 MW on-site combined cycle gas turbine power

plant with the desalination plant. The power plant will

supply electricity to the desalination plant.

The Tianjin Dagang Desalination Plant remains the

largest membrane-based seawater desalination

plant in China. The plant is an example of how

innovative solutions have been employed to

maximise operating and cost efficiencies and to

minimise the environmental impact.

The plant utilises our Kristal® ultrafiltration

membranes for the pre-treatment process and a

double pass reverse osmosis process to produce

high-grade water for use by Tianjin’s petrochemical

industries.

Site selection and plant design were criticalconsiderations to ensure the plant’s continuous

operation during the hard winter months of the

north. The plant is located next to an operating

power plant and draws its feedwater from the

cooling water discharge of the power plant. With

the intake water some 5°C warmer than ambient

temperature, lower osmotic pressure is required

during the treatment processes, resulting in lower

energy consumption and cost savings.

The modular design of the plant allows for easy

capacity expansion to meet any increase in demand

for water.

The Tianjin Dagang Desalination Plant supports

the industrial growth in Tianjin City and is a secure

and sustainable source of water to the region’spetrochemical hub.

Hyflux was awarded the project to develop a

seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) desalination

plant in Magtaa, Algeria in April 2008 by the state-

owned Algeria Energy Company (AEC) which

handles the power and water privatisation exercise

in the North African country. Hyflux won the project

under intense competition from international

contenders.

Hyflux’s partners for the project are AEC and the

state-owned national water company L’Algérienne

Des Eaux (ADE). The off-takers are Sonatrach

and ADE.

The Magtaa Desalination Plant is distinctive in

a number of ways. With a designed capacity of

500,000 m3/day of desalinated water, it is one of the

largest SWRO desalination plants in the world.

It features the world’s largest installation of

ultrafiltration membranes for the pre-treatment

process. Hyflux’s Kristal® membranes are employed

for the pre-treatment stage.

The pipe laying is an engineering feat in its own

right. The plant is located some 400 m away from

the shoreline separated by a very challengingstretch of terrain that includes a lake, a railway

track and sand dunes. In order to lay the intake

and outfall pipes, a tunneling technique called pipe

jacking was employed to tunnel some 10 m below

sea level for the pipes to be laid and extended to

the sea. Three intake tunnels, each 1.2 km long and

an outfall tunnel of 1.0 km length were constructed

in this manner.

WATER RECYCLING

WASTEWATER TREATMENT (MBR)

Water recycling is the process of

reclaiming used water or wastewater and

treating the reclaimed or recycled water

by removing solids and impurities for re-

use. Water recycling is a good alternative

to seawater desalination for water-

stressed areas that do not have access

to the sea.

Membrane bioreactor (MBR) technology

combines the membrane process of

filtration and the solid-liquid separation

step into a single and cost-effective

process that reduces capital and

operating costs. It is a highly advanced

method and is widely used for municipal

and industrial wastewater treatment.

JURONG MEMBRANE BIOREACTOR PLANT

The Jurong Membrane Bioreactor Plant is situated at Jurong Water Reclamation Plant, a

conventional activated sludge wastewater treatment facility. Using biological processes and

microfiltration membranes, wastewater from the industrialised Jurong catchment is treated foruse by industries on Jurong Island.

As a brownfield site, this project presented some challenges. The limited land area meant

that the plant layout had to be designed to minimise overall footprint while detailed planning

and site survey were required to ensure that the existing underground structures were

protected during the retrofit. In addition, the retrofitting work had to be carried out in an

operating plant with minimal disruptions to ongoing operations.

MBRs offer several advantages over conventional wastewater treatment such as small

footprint, easy retrofit and simple operations, in addition to high quality effluent that can be

re-used or safely discharged to coastal, surface or brackish waterways.

21



WASTEWATER TREATMENT (CONVENTIONAL)

Wastewater treatment is the treatment of used water released from residences,

businesses (such as restaurants and food courts) and industries. It is a multi-

stage treatment process to eliminate or reduce the pollutants and toxins in the

wastewater to an acceptable level before the water can be safely discharged into

the environment. Wastewater treatment may be followed by recycling for re-use.
