Description:
The Project seeks to reduce the salinity of the water to make it suitable for irrigation, with energy efficiency processes. It uses solar energy to condition brackish water at competitive prices. The Company is awaiting the corresponding procedures from the Superintendencia de Servicios Sanitarios. The desalination plant is expected to produce 200 liters per second of potable water, which will cover 50% of the water well demand in Azapa.
