Answer:

Desalination plants, also known as desalination plants, are industrial facilities for desalination, generally of the sea or salty lakes, to obtain drinking water.

Step-by-step explanation:

The benefits are clear: having clean water in places where it is scarce. But, on the disadvantages side, it is a process that requires a lot of energy and is therefore expensive.
