Detailed explanation-1: -Desalination is an artificial process by which saline water (generally sea water) is converted to fresh water. The most common desalination processes are distillation and reverse osmosis. There are several methods. Each has advantages and disadvantages but all are useful.
Detailed explanation-2: -Desalination is the process by which the dissolved mineral salts in water are removed. Currently, this process, applied to seawater, is one of the most used to obtain fresh water for human consumption or agricultural purposes.
Detailed explanation-3: -Seawater is pumped into the desalination plant from the Indian Ocean and passes through pre-treatment filtration to remove most particles. The filtered seawater is then forced under pressure through special membranes. The osmosis process that occurs in nature is reversed.
