Sea/Saline water contains a significant concentration of dissolved solids. The concentration
is usually expressed in parts per million (ppm) of salt. Sea water has a salinity
of roughly 40,000 ppm and higher. We can classify water based on different salinities
levels:
|
Fresh Water |
< 500 ppm |
|
Brackish Water |
1000 – 5000 ppm |
|
Highly Brackish Water |
5000 – 15000 ppm |
|
Saline Water |
15000 – 45000 ppm |
|
Highly Saline Water |
up to 70000 ppm |
Normally, moderately or highly salinated is of little use to humans. Humans cannot
drink salinated water, nor is it suitable for irrigating crops. Industry also rarely
uses salinated water because of the effect salt water has on metal components, among
other reasons.
Corodex uses Reverse Osmosis water desalination process to remove dissolved solids
from saline water. Middle east is a home of some of worlds largest Reverse Osmosis
plants.

(Sea Water Reverse Osmosis) and

for very high saline water.
