Abstract
The low-temperature heat discarded by a large power plant can produce large quantities of desalted seawater at low cost. This paper describes a system in which a horizontal tube multi-effect (HTME) desalination process is coupled to a large power plant (either nuclear or non-nuclear) in such a manner as not to interfere with the power cycle. The resulting product water is produced at a cost approximating present prices of water sold by water companies.
