Source-water assessment
Review of salinity, suspended solids, biological activity, seasonal variability and the required treated-water standard.
Start a conversationDesalination plant design
Desalination systems engineered from source water to dependable supply.
We design coordinated desalination plants for developments, hospitality facilities, institutions and industrial users.
Our desalination plant design services
Built for real-world performance.
Emplan develops desalination solutions around source-water chemistry, required product-water quality, demand, energy use, site conditions and operator capability. We coordinate pretreatment, membrane or thermal processes, post-treatment, brine management, power, controls and distribution as one maintainable plant.
Process and capacity design
Selection and sizing of the treatment process, recovery rate, redundancy and phased capacity.
Pretreatment and membranes
Coordinated filtration, chemical conditioning, reverse-osmosis equipment and clean-in-place systems.
Post-treatment and storage
Remineralisation, disinfection, treated-water storage and integration with the distribution network.
Energy and power strategy
Efficient high-pressure pumping, energy recovery, electrical supply, standby power and renewable-energy interfaces.
Brine and residuals management
Site-appropriate handling and discharge strategies coordinated with environmental and statutory requirements.
Controls and monitoring
Instrumentation, automation, alarms and water-quality monitoring for safe and stable operation.
Implementation support
Tender documentation, technical reviews, construction support, commissioning and performance verification.
