00925njm 22002777a 4500 dc Serna Cantero, Álvaro author Tadeo Rico, Fernando Juan author 2013 This paper evaluates the design of an offshore desalination plant currently under preliminary development.The purpose is to test the feasibility of producing drinkable water using wave energy in out-of-sight installations, as an alternative for those locations where land use, civil engineering works, and/or environmental impact make a coast-based solution inadequate. After describing the components, a proposal for sizing them is studied, based on using buoy-measured data at the expected location and their mathematical models of the different sections of the plant. Finally, by using measured buoy data, the influence of sizing on the expected performance is studied for a specific location, and one of the designs is developed in detail.
