Document: Appendices to Pacific Southwest Water Plan Review Draft "Office of Saline Waters Appendix", August 1963, Pagination added, page 5The plant has consistently, under design conditions, produced a million gallons of water per day having 10 to 15 ppm by weight of dissolved solids. It has 36 flash chambers or stages, and provids for recirculation of brine to supply the heat required for vaporizing the water, thereby economizing on the fuel energy required. The stages are contained in ten horizontal vessels, which are factory built and transported to the site as assembled units. They are connected together to form one continuous circuit of 36 stages, in series. Auxiliary equipment includes the boiler, pumps, piping, brine heater, instruments, and an operations building. The entire plant occupies a working space of approximately 1.5 acres.Epson Perfection 4870 Photo, 400 dpi, 8 bit, 2,376,860 byte
