Desalination of seawater and brackish water
Membrane filtration (RO, NF, UF, MF) Application to water treatment

According to UNESCO, around 40% of the world's population is experiencing water stress, and demographic trends are set to increase this figure to 47% by 2030. Yet seas and oceans cover ¾ of the planet, and 80% of the world's population lives less than 80 km from a coastline. Seawater desalination is therefore one of the options for supplying fresh water. The first installations appeared in the 1980s, with significant growth from the 2000s onwards (figure 4). At the end of 2014, the United Nations counted nearly 16,000 desalination plants, with a total production capacity...
