Why is the building of desalination plants controversial?
The use of desalination plants is controversial. Two major concerns are:they use a lot of energy, which is supplied by coal-fired power plants. Apart from the pollution caused by these plants there are many who feel that they are not sustainable. That is, they cannot continue to operate without putting the environment and our future at risk.the water flowing back to the sea contains much more salt than normal sea water. It is also warmer. This can affect marine animals and plants that live near the desalination plant.
Why is desalination bad?
Desalination has very high energy requirements and since most countries with desalination plants do not have nuclear power, it results in the burning of lots of more coal. Additionally, the methods by which salt is removed from water create a resulting "salt-slurry" which is ejected as waste in to the original saltwater body. This salt-slurry makes the area around the desalination plant poisonous for the local sea-life.However, in almost every case, the positives of desalination outweigh these negatives.
