A really big desalination facility

370 votes

A single nuclear power plant demands 8 desalinators worth of fresh water. Even with recycling water, it still comes to a lot of space and piping.

It gets even worse for large projects like, say, focusing on nuclear desalination for everything. Then you might have dozens of desalinators.

A large desalination module 4-8 times the capacity of the small one would be a nice improvement.

Reverse osmosis filter, does not need steam and requires less energy but consumes osmosis filter elements.
