Environmentally-driven design of a floating desalination platform (Case study: reverse osmosis floating desalination platform of ras gharib, Egypt) [PDF]
AIMS Energy, 2021 Las plantas de desalinización flotantes son tecnologías bastante nuevas y no son tan comunes como las plantas de desalinización terrestres tradicionales. Casi ninguno de los diseñadores de los proyectos propuestos o instalados indica que el diseño es impulsado por el medio ambiente, y solo unos pocos diseños son evaluados ambientalmente.
