H a t e r i a l s and energy requirements

The non-polluting technique requi res the s m e smount of salt as the standard technique (16 kg per ton of deaineral ized b e e t s ) ,

On the other hand i t requi res l e s s \rater because of the condensation of evaporated water and i t s recycl ing (0.375 n3 agains t 0.850). more energy (520 EIJ as opposed t o 9 NJ).
