Desalination
We were the engineer for Ras Abu Fontas A power and
water station as well as the B station in Qatar. The 608MW plant
comprises five gas turbine generators with heat recovery boilers
supplying steam to five flash distillers, providing a desalination
output of 150,000m3/dayMott MacDonald is the world’s leading
consultant in water desalination – a vital technology for life
support in the Middle East and one that’s being taken up rapidly in
other countries experiencing water supply shortfalls. We have
engineered more than 25% of global capacity.We have in-depth experience of all desalination processes, inc-luding the thermal processes associated with power produc-tion, stand-alone reverse osmosis techniques and the emerging hybrid approaches. A leading innovator in this field, Mott MacDonald is at the fore-front of reducing cost and improving quality in desalination.
Our comprehensive skills include:
- Water master planning and demand growth prediction
- Development of optimal desalination solutions
