The Ministry of Water Resources in Sierra Leone has announced a desalination plant project in Freetown.

The project will be procured under public-private partnership (PPP) and will have the capacity to produce 21,000 mpotable water per day. The plant will utilize reverse osmosis technology to convert seawater to potable drinking water for the benefit of an estimated population of 420,000 people.

The overall objective of this project is to expand access and provide potable water to the general population of the east end of Freetown where the availability of pipe-born water is a serious challenge.
