Salt Separation Services have recently delivered two 50 m3/day Reverse Osmosis desalination plants for HMS Gloucester as part of the Royal Navy’s steam replacement programme on Type 22 Frigates and Type 42 Destroyers.
These plants follow on from those successfully fitted to HMS Cornwall and HMS Manchester. An additional ships set is soon to be delivered for HMS Nottingham. The plants have been designed to directly replace the evaporators that were originally fitted to both classes of ship.
