Riyadh – The Saline Water Conversion Corporation (SWCC) has signed a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU) with the Arabian Petrochemical Company (Petrokemya), a subsidiary of the Saudi Basic Industries Corporation (SABIC), to provide the concentrated saline solution to the unit’s EDC plant.
The collaboration comes after SWCC had developed the zero liquid discharge (ZLD) technology which marks one of the company's research milestones, according to an official statement.
The ZLD technology benefits from the discharge produced by water desalination plants through raising the concentration of the saline solution to a high concentration that allows capitalizing on other components such as minerals and precious metals.
SWCC is currently coordinating with Petrokemya to agree on the exact requirements and specifications of the solution.
The promising ZLD technology contributes to transfer of the wasted discharge into a profitable industrial wealth while supporting and nationalising the desalination industry across the kingdom.
