The general director of Asagua will take part in the XXXI Days AEAS with report
May 20, 2011
Asagua director-general shall act as Rapporteur on Wednesday, 8 June to discuss desalination, making a balance of four decades of implementation in our country.
Spain currently has a production capacity of approximately 1,100 annual hm3, of which 70% corresponds approximately to sea water plants, and the other 30% to brackish water plants. This amount is Spain (on a world stage with a global capacity of approximately 30,000 annual hm3) in third place, behind Saudi Arabia and EE.UU., and Australia and Algeria in upcoming positions.
The experience of four decades of work on desalination has converted to Spanish companies in respect of this technology, with great competitiveness in all foreign markets, where they have been built (or they are doing) plants with a combined capacity of an order of magnitude similar to the installed in Spain.
The AEAS days consolidated once again as the main forum for meeting at the national level of experts from leading operators in the sector that is, without doubt, one of the most important events in the world of water.
