In November 2002, a retrofitting of the facility was completed, making it possible to achieve production levels of 33,000 m3/day and thus meet the expected increase in demand.
The seawater intake is via 17 wells (10 borehole + 7 wet pit) up to 150 m deep.
The desalination project is a key part of the South Australian government’s Water Proofing Adelaide Strategy. It provides Adelaide with half of its annual water usage and is powered by sustainable energy sources.
The Tampa Bay project is but one of ACCIONA Agua’s 70 reference plants in the sector with a total installed capacity of over 1.6 million cubic meters per day.
