摘要: Abstract This paper reviews the application of salinity thresholds in Environmental Impact Statements (EIS) Spanish desalination plants. Lower than those recommended by scientific community for protection Posidonia oceanica meadows were established EIS 2005, whereas after this year more consistent with recommendations established. In addition, as a case study, energy consumption these lower was analyzed using brine discharge Alicante The threshold 38.3 psu easily exceeded, which resulted increased dilution ratio and higher consumption. cost 600,000 kwh €50,000 six-month period. would have been considerably decreased without any negative environmental effects on marine environment if applied value 38.5 psu it has suggested. Therefore, is to unify regulations P. based best available evidence avoid additional energy-economic costs.
