Abstract
The PCS-Preussag Conversion System(R) is a mobile floating seawater de salination plant supplying potable water to arid coastal regions. In t he present design example, a standardized Preussag seawater desalinati on plant using reverse osmosis technology is preferably installed on a converted single shell oil tanker because this outdated tanker design concept will eventually be outlawed due to its potential ecological h azard in case of emergency. The PCS-Preussag Conversion System((R)) ca n offer a useful and economic alternative to conventional land-based d esalination plants for a number of applications.
