    Average water consumption and cost of supply by seawater desalination at US$1 per cubic metre (±50%) Area Consumption Litre/person/day Desalinated Water Cost US$/person/day US: 378: 0.38 Europe: 189: 0.19 Africa: 57: 0.06 UN recommended minimum: 49: 0.05

  3. Levelized cost of water - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Levelized_cost_of_water

    Desalination, which produces usable water from saline water, has a higher LCW than processing groundwater or surface water. A 2020 study found that advances in decarbonization would reduce the levelized cost of water produced via desalination from €2.4 per cubic meter in 2015 (US$2.84) to €1.05 per cubic meter in 2050 (US$1.24).

    The unit cost of the purified water at this plant is between ZAR:7 to ZAR:8 (US$0.52 to US$0.60) for every 1,000 liters (220 imp gal; 264 U.S. gal). In comparison, the temporary diesel-fueled desalination plant at Strandfontein , in Cape Town, produces potable water at ZAR:35 to ZAR:40 (US$2.62 to US$3.00) for every 1,000 liters.

    The cost of water from the plant will be $100 to $200 more per acre-foot than recycled water (approximately 0.045 cents per gallon), $1,000 to $1,100 more than reservoir water (approx. 0.32 cents per gallon), but $100 to $200 less than importing water from outside the county. [42] As of April 2015, San Diego County imported 90% of its water. [13]

    Multi-stage flash distillation (MSF) is a water desalination process that distills sea water by flashing a portion of the water into steam in multiple stages of what are essentially countercurrent heat exchangers. Current MSF facilities may have as many as 30 stages. [1]
