Desalinate seawater: THE EXAMPLE OF ISRAEL TO BRAZIL AND SOUTH AMERICA:
Northeastern BRAZIL, suffer for years with drought, desalinate sea
water could be the best option would be used for human consumption,
animal consumption, irrigation; also desalinated water could be exported
from the EAST / SOUTHEAST to Gerais, Goiás, Tocantins Gerais during the
dry period the beams aqueducts.
São Paulo and Rio de
Janeiro as the capital of both the interior could consume desalinated
water in the same way; in periods of drought in the south region of
Brazil could be supplied with desalinated water.
Northern Chile could use desalinated water and exported to Bolivia and
northwestern Argentina by aqueducts; Peru could do the same to irrigate
the coastal region and export to Bolivia.
Argentina
could desalinate sea water in Patagonia, used for both human and animal,
as for irrigation both in Patagonia as in Pampa Interior (or dry
Pampa).
Sea levels are rising and oceans, also would be a way to ease the rising waters.

Israel inaugurates the largest desalination plant in the world
July 7, 2010 • Updated at 06:00
Last month, Israel launched its third desalination plant in the
northern city of Hadera. The plant was considered the largest
desalination plant by reverse osmosis in the world. It captures water
from the Mediterranean Sea and makes it drinkable, it is expected that
the plant will produce 127 million cubic meters of water per year -
enough to supply a sixth of the Israeli population.
Built with an investment of nearly half a billion dollars, the plant was created by IDE Technologies, an Israeli company that has already built two water desalination plants in the country along with Housing and Construction Group, a construction company owned by the Arison Group.
The government was responsible for creating the plant, aiming to meet the demands of a growing population and its stock of water level always threatened, dependent almost exclusively of winter rains.
Through a contract for 25 years, water will cost a little more than 50 cents per cubic meter. According to the FDI, the first desalination plant, built on the coast of Ashkelon, has been performing well since 2005. A third plant in Palmahim, south of Tel Aviv. Two other plants are being built in Ashhdod and Soreq.
A new era?
"The success of the concept of a mega desalination plant reached a new era of abundant and accessible water for the world, who are facing problems of lack of water," said Avshalom Felber, CEO of IDE Technologies, in a statement.
Ofer Kotler, CEO of Housing and Construction Group said: "As one of the largest and most complex projects that our group has done, we are particularly pleased to introduce this plant to a country experiencing difficulties with water".
The IDE technology presented in the fields of thermal and membrane desalination advances. The salt is removed from sea water using a reverse osmosis process, one of the two ways of using membranes for desalination of water. In reverse osmosis water from a highly pressurized saline solution is channeled through a permeable membrane which separates the salt components. The second way is through a process called electrodialysis.
The IDE is owned by two Israeli mega-industries. The chemical company ICL, and the Delek Group, an investor in the energy and infrastructure.
It is eco-
The environmentalist Israel did not come desalination as long term solution to solve water shortage in Israel and the Middle East. One of Protestant groups are Friends of the Earth Middle East (FoEME) , whose director Gidon Bromberg Israeli points out that the intense dependence on these energy-intensive plants, and highly polluting, is not a viable long term solution.
Bromberg and others dedicated to the protection of local water resources suggest that countries lacking water, like Israel, Jordan and others in the region should identify the most effective means of reducing water consumption.
"This conflict between industry and environmentalists is not new, it is now time to find common ground and resolve the crisis," said Shmulik Shai, H2ID general manager of the Hadera desalination plant. He also says that in the last five years, Israel has been facing a severe shortage in its three main sources of water: the sea of Galilee, his mountain aquifer and its coastal aquifers. He warns that the country is at risk, and that if it continues like this, the consequences will be increasingly serious.
According to Shai plant will provide much of the 750 million cubic meters of water that Israelis need for personal use.
