circulating water is distributed to plant
components.
 Capacities of large drum screens are often up
to 140,000 m³/h, and regardless of the design
capacity wear rates are insignificant.
 Drum screens require very little maintenance
compared to conventional travelling water
screens.
Geiger ® High-Capacity Drum Screens: Technical Data
 Suitable for any intake where large quantities of screened water are required for
cooling or downstream processes
 Construction materials are selected to suit the conditions and can range from

(JOIS™)

(JOIS™)
 Johnson Screens® developed the first Passive Intake Screens in

1968
 More than 4,000 passive intakes have been installed worldwide
 Particularly interesting for flow-rates up to 100,000 m3/day
 Ideal when cross-flow currents/ambient velocities are existing
 Johnson Offshore Intake Systems™ minimize divers interventions
due to proper design and technology

(JOIS™)
 Key Features:
 Low capital costs, no moving parts, easy
to install, and low maintenance needs.
 Fish-friendly design with 0.05 m/s (0.15
ft/sec) through-slot velocity to avoid fish
entrainment
 No extraction of water from the water
source
 Easy cleaning – with a periodic blast of
compressed air using our Hydroburst™
system
 Three standard configurations – drum, tee
and half screens
 Most even through-slot velocities and
lowest entrainment risk

(JOIS™)
 Three configurations – Single or Drum Screens “S”, Tee Screens “T”, or “Half-T”
Screens for shallow intakes
 Model number indicates configuration and diameter of the screens
(Example: T-48 1.2 m oder S-21 0.5 m)
 Drum screens are typically mounted vertically and used for smaller flow rates

Desalination
Desalination: A Global Opportunity
It is estimated that approx. 30% of the

world's irrigated areas suffer from salinity
problems and remediation is seen to be
very costly.
 In 2002 there were approx. 12,500

desalination plants around the world in
120 countries. They produce some 14
million cubic meters/day of freshwater…
 The most important users of desalinated

water are in the Middle East, (mainly
Saudi Arabia, Kuwait, the United Arab
Emirates, Qatar and Bahrain), which
uses about 70% of worldwide capacity;
and in North Africa (mainly Libya and
Algeria), which uses about 6% of
worldwide capacity.
Source: https://water.usgs.gov/edu/drinkseawater.html (2016)
Desalination: Cost Comparison
“Among industrialized countries, the USA is one of

the most important users of desalinated water,
especially in California and parts of Florida. The
cost of desalination has kept desalination from
being used more often. The graphic on the left
shows how amendments to California’s extensive
desalination regulations have threatened to bump
up the costs of desalination just as the state looks to
the sea to address its rampant drought.”
