Welcome to the Desal wiki, the Australian Water Industries portal for tools, resources, and references developed for the National Centre of Excellence in Desalination Australia (NCEDA).

What is the Desal Wiki

Objectives of the Desal Wiki

To provide an inventory of desalination data, and a platform to communicate and share it. This would include:

  • Collecting and organising results and findings from NCEDA activities
  • Consolidating data on existing desalination capacity from other NCEDA projects into a central database
  • Developing and embedding knowledge modules on desalination into the wiki


Rationale for organising the Desal Wiki

The desal wiki is being created due to the lack of consolidation of existing information on Australia’s desalination plants and absence of any sophisticated database or library. This situation is not conductive to the best practice of desalination.

The wiki provides an opportunity to manage and interpret data for all desalination plants, and a platform to communicate and share it with the operators and general public.
