Reverse Osmosis & Water Treatment in Oman

The Sultanate of Oman occupies the south-eastern corner of the Arabian Peninsula and has a total area of 312,500 km2. It is bordered in the north-west by the United Arab Emirates, in the west by Saudi Arabia and in the south-west by Yemen. A detached area of Oman, separated from the rest of the country by the United Arab Emirates, lies at the tip of the Musandam Peninsula, on the southern shore of the Strait of Hormuz. The country has a coastline of almost 1,700 km, from the Strait of Hormuz in the north to the borders of the Republic of Yemen in the south-west, overlooking three seas: the Persian Gulf, the Gulf of Oman and the Arabian Sea. 
 
A great deal of uncertainty lies in the assessment of Oman's water resources. Internal renewable water resources have been evaluated at 985 million m3/year. Surface water resources are scarce. In nearly all wadis, surface runoff occurs only for some hours or up to a few days after a storm, in the form of rapidly rising and falling flood flows. Since 1985, 15 major recharge dams have been constructed together with many smaller structures, in order to retain a portion of the peak flows, thus allowing more opportunity for groundwater recharge. In addition, several flood-control dams produce significant recharge benefits. In 1996, the total dam capacity is 58 million m3. Groundwater recharge is estimated at 955 million m3/year. 
 
Non-conventional water sources
 
In 1995, the total produced wastewater was estimated at 58 million m3. Only 28 million m3 was treated, of which 26 million m3 was reused. Also in 1995, the quantity of desalinated water was 34 million m3. 
 
Water withdrawal
 
In 1995, total water withdrawal was 1,223 million m3, of which 93.9% for agricultural purposes (4.6% is withdrawn for domestic use and 1.5% for industrial use). The treated wastewater was reused mainly for the irrigation of trees along the roads, while the desalinated water was used for domestic purposes. At present, groundwater depletion is thus estimated at around 240 million m3/year. 
 

The World Bank reports that at least 80 countries have water shortages and 2 billion people lack access to clean water. More disturbingly, the World Health Organization has reported that 1 billion people lack enough water to simply meet their basic needs, unfortunately in many countries water is scarce or contaminated.
