Desalination plants produce around 25 mm3 of water every day to meet the world's water demand.These "water factories" have a capacity ranging up to 230,000 m3/d, and they can supply large cities with drinking water.However, it is well-known that desalination plants are often large industrial facilities that require a lot of space and emit large amounts of combustion gases.The plant type, capacity, design, and expansion capacity vary across Western Australia, South Australia, Victoria, New South Wales, Queensland, and the Northern Territory.As a result, it has been found that the Northern Territory ranks first, while Victoria ranks the lowest.Using the MOORA Method, a range of desalination plants can be evaluated, and the results show that the Northern Territory is at the top of the ranking.
