Desalination removes salt and other particulates from seawater, brackish water, and recovered wastewater, making it potable. In light of droughts, population increase, and changes in the infrastructure of drinking water purification, desalination methods have emerged as popular, affordable, and necessary.

Many island nations lack sufficient ground water and also utilize desalination. Desalination must reduce typical seawater at about 34,000 part per million (ppm or mg/L) to an acceptable drinking water standard of below 500 ppm total dissolved solids (tds). ... The most common methods are reverse osmosis and distillation.
