Join the F&C Health, Safety, & Environment Office for a Community Open Day at the
Sea Water Reverse Osmosis Plant on Saturday, March 22 at 10:30 a.m. or

This public event is a great opportunity for the community to see firsthand how KAUST’s high quality drinking water is produced and how its high standard of quality is maintained as well as learn more about water conservation and innovations in water desalination & forward osmosis.

- “Recent Trends and Innovation in Seawater Desalination” by Dr Shahnawaz Sinha, Center Liaison Officer and Pilot Facilities Manager
- “Sustainable Water Solutions for Costal Cities: Forward Osmosis (FO)” by Muhannad Abu-Ghdeep, Technical Officer and KAUST graduate
