what process using evaporation is used to separate salt from sea water in australian desalination plants?
reverse osmosis
australia’s first desalination plant was constructed in 1903 to treat saline groundwater in the gold fields of western australia at kalgoorlie. several desalination plants were built in australia between 1960 and 1980, especially following the revolution in membrane technology that made reverse osmosis economically viable, but vapor-compression desalination and multi-stage flash distillation plants were also built. by 2002, however, only two reverse osmosis desalination plants were still operating, one on kangaroo island and the other on rottnest island. seawater reverse osmosis is the only type of desalination technology currently used for large-scale desalination plants in australia, the most important of these plants being located in perth and sydney.
