Innovative Design and Material Development are Driving Cost Efficiency, Sustainability, and Viability of Desalination Technologies
The rising population is driving global water demand and putting significant pressure on the global water supply chain. The United Nations estimates that half of the global population will face water shortages by 2025, and the situation is expected to intensify and lead to 700 million people facing displacement by 2030 due to water shortages. Desalination offers a viable alternative to this challenge.
The research service offers a deep-dive analysis of advanced desalination technologies, including multistage flash distillation, multiple-effect distillation, thermal vapor compression, reverse osmosis, and forward osmosis. The study also explores sustainable ways to dispose waste streams (brine). In addition, it covers growth drivers and restraints for desalination technology adoption, a detailed growth opportunity analysis for desalination plant developers and operators, and the patent landscape of desalination technologies. The study also discusses the key stakeholders involved in the development of next-generation thermal and membrane-based desalination technologies.
