About
One of China’s largest seawater desalination plants, the State Development & Investment Corporation (SDIC ) power plant is a complex which was designed based on a circular economy approach, where power, desalinated water, and salt are co-generated.
The Tianjin desalination plant provides high-quality drinking water for the local population, as well as industrial process water for the power plant.
In the SDIC complex, the waste heat from the power plants is utilized as a heat source for the MED, while the brine from the MED is used for salt production.
