Tianjin Desalination Plant
China’s largest desalination plant
China’s SDIC (State Development and Investment Corporation) needed a reliable and sustainable supply of clean water near the Tianjin power plant, 200km northeast of Beijing. The Tianjin desalination plant provides high quality drinking water for the local population, as well as industrial boiler make up and process water for the power plant.
IDE’s Multi-Effect Distillation solution is a win-win concept. The Tianjin Beijing Power Plant is a mega-size engineering system composed of a power plant, seawater desalination plant and salt production from brine, and is managed as an integrated system in which all three parts are interdependent on one another.
“We are proud of this world-class MED design and believe that it will serve as a model for other power plants throughout the world.”
