Description
Description | Natura Resources plans to deploy its 100-MWe molten salt reactor (MSR-100) in the Permian Basin by 2029 to supply continuous baseload power and high-temperature process heat for thermal desalination of produced water from oil and gas operations. The project is in collaboration with NGL Water Solutions Permian, which will provide water treatment and desalination expertise and leverage a Texas Pollutant Discharge Elimination System (TPDES) permit for treated effluent discharge. The integrated system aims to treat produced water on an industrial scale, generate power, and produce clean water for data centers, agriculture, and other industries. |
