Doosan Vina will be making history early this year when it begins manufacturing Desalination Evaporators for the world’s largest ever desalination order. The order is for eight Evaporators for the Ras Az Zawr project in Saudi Arabia. The completed project will be capable of producing 728 million liters of fresh water per day which is enough fresh water to meet the daily fresh water needs of 2,000,000 people. The contract was signed recently between Doosan Heavy Industries & Construction and Saudi Arabia.
Of the eight units Doosan Vina’s desalination shop will be responsible for producing three of the evaporators which will convert salty sea water into 273 million liters of fresh water per day.
Each of the football field sized evaporator units will weigh almost 4,000 tons and be 10.6 m high x 29.2m wide and 100.4 m long.
In Doosan Vina’s initial desalination project, they manufactured the first ever “Made in Vietnam” Desalination Evaporator; it is now busy providing 91 million liters of clean healthy water for a quarter million people in the United Arab Emirates (UAE).
Recognized as a world leader in the desalination business, Doosan uses the high-tech multi-stage steam and Multistage Flash process to produce clean healthy water for people worldwide.
With the motto: "Where there is fresh water - there is health." The Doosan Vina desalination factory hopes to bring health to people all over the globe and with these projects they are well on their way to making that dream a reality.
