Seawater desalination plays an important role in South Australia’s water security. In fact, our Adelaide Desalination Plant can provide the greater Adelaide metropolitian region with approximately half its water requirements every year.

Our virtual tour will let you step into the ADP from your home or school, to learn about desalination and see where it all happens. Here you can explore world-leading science and technology, learn about the background and construction, and hear from the experts that keep the ADP running.

To book an excursion to the ADP or another treatment plant, visit our excursions page.

Take the Project Desalination challenge and build your own desalination plant. You’ll need to learn about each step in the desalination process to be able to build your own plant, and to get the tick of approval from our water quality scientists.

This real-time management game puts you in control of our water network. Can you keep the water flowing to almost 1.5 million residents of Adelaide? You’ll need to look after customer needs, keep an eye on cost, manage water sources with a changing climate, and keep up the maintenance of our network. Are you up for the challenge?

Tap water is one of the best choices you can make for your health, the environment and your wallet. Search for nearby drinking fountains and bottle filling stations wherever you are in South Australia using our BYOB app.
