Detailed explanation-3: -Reverse osmosis It is the most used process and consumes less energy than the rest, as it is based on the use of semipermeable membranes that allow the water to pass, but not the salt.

Detailed explanation-4: -The desalination plants are designed to remove impurities like salts and other mineral from seawater or brackish water.
