?What is desalination
Desalination is refers to any of several processes that
remove the excess salts and other minerals from water to
obtain fresh water suitable for human consumption,
irrigation, or several industrial use.

3) Evaporator system
For the 1st effect, seawater flows through the tube side of ejector
condenser.

The other part of the seawater (brine) collects at the bottom shell
and flows to the shell bottom of the next effect.
In the other side, the vapor produced in the 1st evaporator flow
through the demister pad out of the evaporator. This flow routed to
the tubes of the 2nd effect evaporator acting as a heating medium.

This last action will have a cascading effect, in that:less heat input less feed flashing in each effect less distillate product
+ increase brine blowdown SOmonitor the level in the brine
compartment.
