A total of 20 desalination projects with a processing capacity of 200,000 cubic meters of saline water will become operational by 2025, the deputy for supervision and planning at the National Water and Wastewater Engineering Company of Iran (Abfa) said.
“The plans are estimated to cost $100 million and when operational, Iran’s current desalination capacity of 450,000 cubic meters per day will reach 650,000 cm/d,” Hashem Amini was quoted as saying by IRNA.
Abfa operates 75 desalination plants in Iran’s northern and southern coastal regions, which were completed by the state-run company at a cost of $300 million, he added.
