The maximum capacity of drinking water required is 5,000 m3 per day with a maximum intake of 13,300 m3/day for a 15-year period. The plant needs to be constructed to a 25-year life. 4. All the desalination equipment will be supplied from Europe and assembled onsite. 1st and 2nd pass membrane skids with all the key desalination equipment will include: a. Extensive pumping requirements and redundancy including high pressure pumps, dosing pumps, backwash pumps, limestone feed pumps, potable water and transfer pumps. b.
