‘Desalination' Showcases The Latest Patent It Invented To Produce Clean Energy Through Salt Return Water At The Saudi Water Forum 2024

The Saline Water Conversion Corporation is showcasing its latest innovations, represented by a new patent through which clean energy can be produced by exploiting salt return water, during its participation in the Saudi Water Forum 2024..

Tira"The Foundation's research arm seeks to exploit the difference in salinity between seawater and salt effluent resulting from desalination operations, and convert it into clean energy using a multi-stage forward osmosis membrane..

Through this qualitative innovation, desalination aims to ensure a clean and sustainable energy source, reduce carbon emissions, and make the most of the salt feed for energy production, which contributes to reducing production costs, enhancing environmental sustainability, and enhancing the prospects for developing more innovations and modern technologies..

Desalination also showcases its various initiatives and solutions to sustain water resources in Saudi Arabia and enhance its capabilities to produce desalinated water efficiently and reliably through the Saudi Water Forum held in the capital, Riyadh, organized by the Ministry of Water, Environment and Agriculture. The forum brings together local, regional and international water sector leaders, experts, researchers and specialists, and includes a review of opportunities. Investment in the water sector and increasing the volume of knowledge exchange.

Sharing is" DessertDuring the forum , there were three dialogue sessions and three discussion panels, in addition to a special pavilion in the exhibition held on the sidelines of the forum, while a memorandum of understanding was signed with the National Center of Meteorology in the fields of data and information for meteorological and marine meteorology, and the exploitation of satellite technologies, artificial intelligence applications, and advanced computing systems..

The participation of the Saline Water Conversion Corporation in the Saudi Water Forum 2024 AD comes in its capacity as the largest producer of desalinated water in the world, with a production reaching 11.5 million cubic meters of water per day, through networks consisting of 33 production systems and 139 purification stations. Desalination holds a world record for the least A production system that reduces energy consumption by 2.27 kilowatt-hours in addition to clean energy solutions and achieves a reduction of 20 million metric tons of carbon emissions until 2023, and aims to reduce 37 million metric tons in 2025..

Desalination also works to harness technologies and support research and innovations in the field of water, and has succeeded in obtaining 33 patents during the past 24 months, one of which is the extraction of precious metals by separating divalent elements from brine waste water, in order to enhance the concept of the circular economy as one of the most prominent goals of the Saudi vision. 2030 to maintain water and environmental security and achieve sustainable growth.
