This aerial photo taken on March 20, 2023 shows the water source area of a seawater desalination plant in Qingdao, east China's Shandong Province. In recent years, Qingdao has vigorously developed the seawater desalination industry. Through the establishment of large-scale seawater desalination bases and connecting desalinated water to the municipal pipeline network, the city's water resources have been effectively supplemented. At present, Qingdao's seawater desalination projects have the capacity to produce over 300,000 cubic meters of freshwater per day, and nearly one-tenth of the water used by residents in the main urban areas comes from desalinated seawater.
