Potential Reduction of Carbon Burden for Senak Seawater Desalination Plant in Malaysia

Abstract: PurposeCarbon footprint calculation is one of the approaches available in the Life Cycle Assessment (LCA) system, which can be considered as a decision support tool for environmental sustainability management. Hence, this purpose of this study is to examine the potential contribution of the product, namely water through carbon footprint measurement. Seawater has been selected as the source for clean water transformation in Senak due to its ability to meet the growing demands of the local population and its abi… Show more

“…The statement regarding awareness of Malaysia's first small-scale desalination plant in Bachok, Kelantan, ranked lowest regarding respondents' awareness of desalination technology. However, it is crucial to emphasize the significance of raising awareness about this plant in the policymaking process, considering the well-established presence of a desalination plant in Malaysia [33]. Regarding the understanding of brine effluent and its environmental implications, the least amount of awareness was observed concerning knowledge about brine disposal methods and the brine effluent itself.…”
