Municipal desalination converts seawater or brackish water into drinking water.

The process removes dissolved salts, minerals and microorganisms to ensure water meets local regulatory requirements.

Pretreatment protects downstream equipment, particularly RO membranes, while post-treatment ensures the final water is safe for distribution.

De Nora technologies support some of the world’s largest municipal desalination plants. Our disinfection and oxidation systems help operators manage biofouling, reduce chemical costs and maintain stable plant performance.
Solutions are engineered for efficiency, reliability and long-term operating value across diverse municipal conditions.

Pre & post membrane disinfection

Chlorine dioxide plays a key role in pretreatment and post-treatment for desalination. It helps control biofouling before water reaches the RO membranes and supports safe disinfection after the desalination process.

OXICORE chlorine dioxide generators: delivers precise oxidant production and stable dosing.

Pre-filtration

Effective pre-filtration protects downstream membranes by removing suspended solids, reducing fouling and stabilizing feedwater quality. This step improves system reliability, extends RO membrane life and lowers overall operating costs in municipal desalination plants.

DE NORA TETRA® LP Block underdrain system: provides uniform air and water distribution for efficient backwashing and reliable removal of fine particles.
