UK's First Large-Scale Desalination Plant In Operation
LONDON - JUNE 17: Workers walk past pressure vessels at Britain's first-ever mainland de-salination plant, which is known as the Thames Gateway Water Treatment Works on June 17, 2010 in Beckton, England. Situated east of London, the £270m plant will, when required, turn a mixture of seawater and river water from the tidal River Thames into drinking water for Londoners. This is the world's first four-stage reverse osmosis water treatment works and it is able to produce 150 million litres of water per day
