Thermal Desalination Plant Operational Value Improvement Guide

This document discusses how thermal desalination plants can achieve significant operational value improvements (OVI) through real-time measurement and control of energy costs and production value. It outlines a "Measure – Empower – Improve" process, noting that effective automation can yield 1-3% production value gains and 3-5% reductions in energy and material costs, potentially recovering up to $2.7M per year per plant.
