Desalination for agriculture in the Murray Darling Basin
Brackish groundwater desalination could provide an additional water source for agriculture and regional communities in the Murray–Darling Basin. Use the calculator to explore how plant size, utilisation, water quality, energy supply and brine disposal may affect the indicative cost of desalinated water.
