Land based desalination
Demand for fresh water is constantly on the rise around the world due to population growth and greater residential per capita water use. So clean water for human consumption plays an increasingly important role in the infrastructure of society, commerce and industry. Alfa Laval equipment minimizes the environmental impact by reducing the amount of waste derived from water production.
