Tap 4: Desalinated Water

Desalination was undertaken to treat seawater and convert it into fresh water . The first desalination plant was set up in Tuas in 2005, where reverse osmosis is used to reclaim water. It supplies 136000 million litres of desalinated water daily, whic meets 10% of Singapore's water needs. The desalination plant is an integral role in Singapore's drive towards self-sufficiency and it meets with the future needs at an affordable cost.
