Brine discharges from desalination plants spread out over broad spatial scales, affecting the benthic communities encountered along the way. Because of this, it is essential to develop technology enhancement initiatives for brine discharge processes that are economically feasible and effective for both planned and existing desalination plants. The technical feasibility of using venture diffusers rather than conventional devices to enhance dilution process was studied at the Maspalomas II desalination plant, in the south of the island of Gran Canaria (Canary Islands, Spain). The venture eductors needed very high exit velocities (≥ 11 m/s) to reach the pressure difference required to produce the suction effect of these devices. At these velocities, the venture eductors were more efficient than conventional diffusers, as they achieved much higher dilutions of around 39 as opposed to 27. Dilutions as high as these are not only very useful, but also necessary, as part of the island’s largest and most ecologically important seagrass meadow of Cymodocea nodosa is found nearby.
