Desalination on one's own property is one of the solutions in the search for fresh water in coastal areas. Because although costly, it is very interesting, Teunike van 't Hof points out. She tried the system at arable farm Van 't Hof in Stavenisse, Zeeland, for a year and calculated whether it is financially feasible. 'We realize water of better quality than normal with this. In view of climate change and therefore increasing salinization, this system will only become more interesting'.
