A proven, more fuel-efficient abatement technology, called the regenerative thermal oxidizer (RTO), is now being applied to tail-gas treatment where it was once thought impossible.
Desalination technology and solar power technology are about to be combined for the first time in a major renewable energy project in Saudi Arabia. The Horizon 2020 project started in June 2021 and is expected to build a power plant combining solar power and desalination by May 2025.
