How Electro Chlorination Supports Saudi Arabia's Desalination Industry Saudi Arabia is one of the world's largest producers of desalinated water. With limited freshwater resources and growing industrial development, desalination plants play a critical role in supplying clean water for homes, industries, and agriculture. However, these plants face a major operational challenge biofouling . Marine organisms, algae, bacteria, and other microorganisms naturally present in seawater attach themselves to intake pipelines, cooling systems, and reverse osmosis (RO) membranes. Over time, this biological buildup reduces plant efficiency, increases maintenance costs, and shortens equipment lifespan. This is where electro chlorination systems provide a reliable, safe, and cost-effective solution. According to SENCO, modern electro chlorination systems generate sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl) on-site using seawater or salt, water, and electricity, eliminating the need to transport or st...
