Seawater desalination by KSB: providing drinking water for Singapore

By: KSB

The SingSpring seawater desalination plant in Singapore is one of the biggest desalination facilities in Asia. It produces 136,000 m³ of drinking water a day via the reverse osmosis process, covering ten percent of the island state‘s water demand.

As an established specialist for desalination, KSB was able to supply Singapore with
numerous high-pressure feed pumps, filtered water pumps, booster pumps and intake pumps.

Four pumps from the Amarex KRT K range, each capable of handling up to 5,000 m³ per hour, pump raw seawater into the plant’s prefiltration system. 10 variable speed Omega pumps transport the prefiltered seawater to a total of 10 HGM-RO pumps; with a rating of 1,170 kW each, these high-pressure units force 708 m³ of seawater per hour through the osmosis membranes.

Thanks to a compact design, flexible connection nozzles and plug & play installation, KSB was able to supply the equipment ahead of schedule, enabling the construction costs to be kept to the absolute minimum.

Salino Pressure Center: low life cycle costs thanks to 4-in-1 technology

Our Salino Pressure Center is the first ever 4-in-1 solution, replacing a high-pressure pump, energy recovery device, booster pump and electric motor with a single compact unit. This makes it ideal for use in small and medium-sized desalination systems – for example in industry, ships and hotels.

We also provide numerous cutting-edge pump ranges for water treatment in waterworks, all highly efficient, extremely reliable and cost-effective to maintain. This enables you to reduce the life cycle costs of your systems, creating the ideal conditions for a cost-effective and reliable water supply.
