- Abstract
Water scarcity is a great challenge that has always stimulated research interests to find efficient ways for the production of pure water. In this context, reverse osmosis is considered as the most important and optimized membrane desalination process that currently dominates the desalination market to help meet the growing water needs, specifically in water-stressed countries. This paper reviews the evolution of desalination in Morocco and presents three case studies of desalination plants: Laayoune, Boujdour (seawater desalination) and Khénifra (the first experience of demineralization of brackish surface water in Morocco). Also, the challenges encountered during the operation of the desalination plant.
