2 If we could produce fresh water from salt water at a low cost, that would indeed be a great service to humanity, and would dwarf any other scientific accomplishment President John F. Kennedy,

3 Why Desalination Should be a part of Coastal Industrial Supply Industrial facilities along the Gulf Coast require an uninterruptable supply of water for operations Desalination offers an uninterruptable, sustainable, and expandable water supply for industry and municipal customers for the Texas Gulf Coast The technologies, practices, and policies utilized to realize this outcome can be replicated elsewhere 3

21 IDE Your Water Partners Why Desalination for Industrial Application? 21

22 What If: This region had an uninterruptable, sustainable and expandable supply of water to meet the needs of industry, agriculture and municipal users regardless of rainfall levels? Managers of existing industrial facilities could know that their current levels of operation are not subject to supply interruption and that if they choose to expand their operations additional water supplies can be brought on line in a timely fashion? Local and regional elected officials and economic developers could assure new industrial prospects that if they locate in this region they will have water? 22

23 Solution: Desalinated water is a source for uninterruptable and expandable water supply Not dependent on rain, Gulf of Mexico is always there Ample capital is available through PPP model New design and construction techniques make plants easily expandable Scale matters with respect to capital cost and therefore water cost Operational costs are decreasing due to increased energy efficiency including: Energy recovery Improved membranes If plant is collocated with a power generation facility a substantial decrease in capital and operating cost Co-location also allows the sharing of water intake infrastructure Inside the fence power purchase agreement reduces power cost 23

24 Concerns Regarding Price of Water Blended pricing concept = lowest cost for water security Water Purchase Agreement shifts risk = lowest water price. When there is no water, how much would you pay for water? $ Completed Contracted $0.75 $0.52 $0.57 $

25 Water supply and management considerations for Industrial users What is your true cost of water delivered to the point of use in the facility at the quality needed? What is your true cost of any new water source delivered to the point of the use in the facility at the quality needed? What is the avoided treatment costs by sourcing a new higher quality water that requires less pretreatment? What is the value premium for water sources that are uninterruptable and easily expandable (seawater)? 25

26 Where the Water Goes 26

27 Common Issues and Objections re Desalination (what I hear in the market place) Footprint (takes up too much space) Energy Consumption (uses too much energy) Water Intake (where is the water coming from?) Brine Management (where does the waste stream go?) Time to Water (I need the water tomorrow!) Price of Water (its too expensive) Its Eventually Going to Rain (so we will just wait) All of these issues, have already been resolved! (some examples) 27

28 Concerns Regarding Footprint: Innovation Example: vertical vs. horizontal (16 Vertical Membranes, Sorek) 16 Vertical design Standard 8 Horizontal design 28

29 Benefits- Vertical RO -16 Inch Significant Reduction of total Foot Print Horizontal Vertical Membrane Size 8 " 16" Number of Membrane per PV 8 8 Number of PVs per Train Number of Trains Number of PVs Number of PVs, equiv 8 " Total RO Area, m Specific Area per PV Total Foot Print Saving 32%

Invented and Implemented in Ashkelon, Hadera, Sorek and Carlsbad 32

33 Concerns Regarding Intake Sorek, Israel (150 MGD) 2.5 km of intake pipe using pipe jacking under nature reserve Lanai, Hawaii (10MGD) Saline groundwater well deployed 2 km away from beach 33

34 Desalination Innovation Intake Design in Environmentally Sensitive Areas 2.5 km; Intake pipe diameter 3.1m 34

35 Pipe Jacking Pipe segment 35

36 Intake Pipeline Suction Head + Air Bubbles for Jellyfish Rejection 36

37 Concerns Regarding Brine: Some Options Salt mining Recapture valuable minerals Aquatic Farming Brine shrimp to feed fish farm Oyster farming Fracking and Completion Fluids Avoids sourcing fresh water Brine Minimization Technologies Power Generation (osmotic power) Forward Osmosis 37
