The world’s largest sea water reverse osmosis desalination plant (RO), boasting a capacity of 200 MIGD (909,200 cubic meters of water per day). This plant surpasses the world’s current largest RO facility by 44% in terms of capacity. The Taweelah plant is poised to establish new benchmarks for water production efficiency and cost, thanks to its utilization of RO technology instead of thermal desalination.
