Iran Ends West’s Monopoly On Reverse Desalination Of Water Technology by ALISMILE(m): 9:17am On Jun 07, 2015
An Iranian company has unveiled
indigenized reverse osmosis water
desalination technology, making Iran
the fifth country in the world to have
acquired the cutting-edge technical
know-how.
Developed by the Petrochemical Research
and Technology Company, which is a
subsidiary of the National Petrochemical
Company, the technology was unveiled
through a ceremony on Saturday.
According to a report by the company,
reverse osmosis desalination technique
uses domestically-produced membrane
module series 4040 and is capable of
desalinating salty water on industrial scale.
The report added that the technology is
totally based on domestic equipment and
each module produced by the Iranian
company is capable of producing nine cubic
meters of fresh water per day.
The reverse osmosis is used to remove
unwanted minerals from water in various
industries.
Before its unveiling in Iran, this state-of-the-
art technology was monopolized by four
countries, including the United States,
Germany, South Korea and Japan.

seawater desalination plant in Pakistani
port city of Karachi.
Given the shortage of water in Iran, the new
technology makes it possible to produce
fresh industrial water from various kinds of
salty water as well as urban and industrial
wastewater.
Petrochemical Research and Technology
Company added in its report that due to its
vast market in various countries, the reverse
osmosis technology will be of high
economic and strategic value to Iran.
It noted that the membrane module series
4040, which is produced in Iran, is 50
percent less expensive than its foreign
counterpart.
Water shortage has been a chronic problem
in Iran and experts believe that acquiring
the new technology will help the country
cope with this challenge in a better way.
In mid-May, Iran’s Energy Minister Hamid
Chitchian warned of possible water supply
cuts and rationing in the summer, calling on
the public to slash consumption.
Chitchian said Iran is grappling with a
drastic reduction in precipitation, which has
seen groundwater reserves deplete sharply
amid a rise in temperature.
According to Deputy Interior Minister
Esmaeil Najjar, more than 500 Iranian cities
are struggling with drinking water shortage. https://mobile.twitter.com/PressTV/status/607460315039715328/photo/1 Cc: lalasticlala

And for d info of those who will want tto say that d technology was bought frm Russia, be aware that Russia don't even ve it! I sincerely hope Nigeria Gov will turn to Iran for our technological development!

where's the photo?
About Nigeria contacting Iran, we don't need such tech now, at leat in the mean time.
We need stable power and fuel.

I hope you guys can see the bolded. . .

Funny how the saying - 'necessity is the mother of invention' is true. People are experiencing lack in water and an indigenous firm seeing the need for a tech like that, went into the lab and brought out this. Now, we may want to argue that theirs is not up to the other four countries standard but who cares? As long as it solves their water needs, then they are good to go. Note that indigenous tech helps a country develop as seen in this thread.

Somewhere in Nigeria, we will be praying to God to come to our aid instead of using what he has given us to reason with, cursing at people that try to make things beneficial to us prolly because they are not from our ethnic group, fighting religious wars; believing that someone vomits money or that when you are touched, your pe.nis disappears, carrying hard drugs to where our death is sure if caught and all sorts of rubbish. We really need to think, reorient ourselves, help indigenous firms to grow by pulling resources together to see that the makers of what we are investing in produce to international standards rather than tagging a product fake because it is not produced by a person from my side of the country. Oil will not help us develop - we really need to look away from oil and focus on other ways of making the nation grow technologically and economically, creating a country our descendants will be proud of, where unemployment rate will go down because people can fit in in one way or another. You can see that only four countries have the tech, na from there then go dey chop - who go wan sell that kain thing?

We are here, Iran, a country that also produces oil like Nigeria is developing at a fast rate technologically. I have always said that Iran is a country to watch out for in terms of technology. Did this sudden rise in their tech development come about as a result of the sanctions they were under? If I am not mistaken, they built their nuclear power plant themselves - something we want to pay Russia $80B for as seen here. That money for don help us well well. . .after all, according to an ex-minister "Nigeria has a lot of money, problem is we do not know how to spend it". undecided

OP BTW, where your 'sauce'?
