San Andres Turns to Seawater RO to Meet Critical Water Supply Shortfall

Presented: 02/14/2017

San Andres Island is located in the Caribbean northwest of the Colombian Coast. The northern part of the island is the center of the urban population and tourism, whereas the southern part of the island has a lower density, more rural population. The existing total water demand for the entire island is estimated around 5.14 mgd; however, the existi...
