ConclusionConclusion
•• The number / size / environmental The number / size / environmental awareness of seawater desal is increasing, awareness of seawater desal is increasing, resulting in increased emphasis on intake resulting in increased emphasis on intake (and outfall) design and economics(and outfall) design and economics
•• Intake (and outfall) can be the Intake (and outfall) can be the ‘‘fatal flaw fatal flaw issueissue’’ of new seawater desal facilitiesof new seawater desal facilities
