The first desalination plant in Mexico was built in 1960 and had a capacity of 27,648 m 3 /day. [7] As of 2006, there were 435 desalination plants in Mexico with a total capacity of 311,700 m 3 /day. [74] One of the world's largest desalination plants (380,160 m 3 /day) is planned for Rosarito. [75]
With an installed capacity of 8.6 gigawatts, it is the world's largest gas-fired power plant. Also the world's largest seawater desalination plant, it can desalinate 2.228 million m 3 of seawater per day, [2] which corresponds to 490 million imperial gallons per day (MIGD). [3]

The world's largest desalination plant is located in Saudi Arabia (Ras Al-Khair Power and Desalination Plant) with a capacity of 1,401,000 cubic meters per day. [ 41 ] Desalination is currently expensive compared to most alternative sources of water, and only a very small fraction of total human use is satisfied by desalination. [ 42 ]
In China a desalination plant was planned for Tianjin in 2010, to produce 100,000 m³ of desalinated seawater a day. [9] [10] In Spain in 2004, 20 reverse osmosis plants were planned to be built along the Costas, expecting to meet slightly over 1% of Spain's total water needs. [11] [12] [13]

The plant began operating in April 2014 and, as of January 2017, is the world's largest hybrid water desalination plant. [1] [2] The project includes a power plant capable of producing 2400 MW of electricity. [1] In 2015, it won the Global Water Awards "Desalination Plant of the Year" award. [3] [4]
For the water desalination, the Fujairah plant uses a combination of two different desalination technologies. 284,000 cubic meters per day (10,000,000 cu ft/d) of water is produced using multi-stage flash distillation (MSF) technology and 171,000 cubic meters per day (6,000,000 cu ft/d) of water is produced using reverse osmosis technology (RO).
