Hmmm. What do they do with the used seawater? Does it go through a treatment
plant like the fresh water? Same treatment plant or an extra one? Or do they
just dump it right back in the sea?
I'd hate to have all my showers be seawater, how would you get the salt off
afterwards?
(...) Interesting. (...) My bet would be that it goes into the common sewer for treatment before being dumped back into the sea. (...) I agree! I take a shower when I come out of the sea just to get the sea goo off. Chris (22 years ago, 16-Jun-02, to lugnet.off-topic.fun, lugnet.off-topic.debate)
