✦ Synopsis

Multi Stage Flash plants have been introduced into Libya since 1976. Over the period up to 1988 the installed capacity has grown to approximately 300,000 cu.m per day. Of this figure only 2/3 is operable. The availability of the plants is low representing less than 66 days/year.

The most important problems are maintenance and unavailability of the skilled personnel.
