Cape Preston Desalination Plant
The First Pre-Assembled Large-Scale Desalination Plant
The Cape Preston desalination plant is the world’s first large-scale desalination plant that was pre-assembled elsewhere due to the remoteness of the location.
It provides high quality clean water to CITIC Pacific Mining’s Sino Iron project, overcoming a number of extraordinarily difficult environmental challenges.
