Hormozgan Desalination Capacity Is on Fast Track

In the past five years desalination capacity in southern Hormozgan Province has increased six fold, managing director of the Hormozgan Water and Wastewater Company said.
“The present annual capacity of 46 million cubic meter was 8 mcm in 2015,” Amin Qasmi was quoted as saying by IRNA.
After development plans in Bandar Abbas and Sirik County desalination units are implemented, (desalination) capacity will increase to 89 mcm a year by March 2021, he said, adding that the rise will gradually help end water transfer from Esteqlal Minab Dam, the main source of potable water in the provincial capital Bandar Abbas.
