Seawater utilization

One is the direct utilization of seawater, which means using seawater as raw water to directly replace freshwater for industrial and domestic use. The second is seawater desalination, which involves using seawater desalination to produce fresh water. The third is the comprehensive utilization of seawater chemical resources, which involves extracting chemical elements, chemicals, and deep processing from seawater The process of obtaining fresh water from seawater is called seawater desalination. Desalination is the production of fresh water by desalinating seawater. It is an open-source incremental technology for water resource utilization, which can increase the total amount of fresh water without being affected by time, space, and climate. The water quality is good and the price is gradually becoming reasonable, which can ensure stable water supply for coastal residents' drinking water and industrial boiler replenishment. Desalination of seawater has actually become a strategic choice widely adopted by many countries around the world to solve water shortage problems, and its effectiveness and reliability have been increasingly recognized. The main methods of seawater desalination include distillation, freezing, reverse osmosis, solar energy, low-temperature multi-stage flash evaporation, electrodialysis, pressure steam distillation, dew point evaporation, hydropower co production, hot film co production, etc. At present, the global daily production of seawater desalination is about 35 million cubic meters, of which 80% is used for drinking water, solving the water supply problem for more than 100 million people, that is, 1/50 of the world's population relies on seawater desalination to provide drinking water. There are over 13000 seawater desalination plants worldwide, and seawater desalination, as an alternative and incremental technology for freshwater resources, is increasingly valued by many coastal countries around the world.
