Water and Electricity Utilities in Kish
The trend of water and electricity production in Kish demonstrates the rapid pace of growth and development in Kish during the recent years on the one hand, and the technical and managerial competence of the KWPC, on the other. Water production in 1996 shows a growth of 41.7% as described below:

Kish Water and Power C0.
Compared to year 1995, the electric power production shows a 45 percent growth. The growth in consumption however, during this period stands at 42 percent.
A comparison of the maximum electricity consumption in the first half of 1997 (28.2MW) with that of 1996 (22.3MW) demonstrates at growth of 25 percent. This, indeed is, a good measure of capabilities associated with the electricity supply and distribution systems available at Kish. The trend of water and electricity production in Kish during the period from 1933 to 1996 has been dynamic. This pace, however, should be maintained to meet the increasing demands.
A look at the rate of production of water and electricity by theKWPC during the first half of 1997, and its comparison with the same period in 1996, clearly displays the pace of progress. During this period , the production of drinking water shows a 1.3 percent increase, production of waste water 18.3 percent, and water storage 66 percent.
The KWPC has also managed to assemble and operate three desalinators, construct two drinking water storage tanks, each containing 5 thousand cubic meters of drinking water, and commission a salt water deposit pool with a capacity of 2 thousand cubic meters per day.

Kish Sewage Treatment System
Construction of the sewage treatment system and recycling of water for irrigation purposes counts as an environment, friendly measure carried out by the KWPC. With the construction of this network, 700 cubic meters of home and city sewage and waste is transferred on a daily basis, to 6 sewage treatment units via a 6 kilometer long underground PVC pipeline.
The sewage is physically and chemically treated, filtered, deposited , refined and eventually chlorinated in these units. The outcome is the extraction of 300 to 400 cubic meters of water for irrigation. This process is significantly inexpensive compared to the expenses and costs associated with the desalination of sea-water . The water produced this way complies with BOD, PH and COD environmental and hygienic factors. Moreover, it is clear enough and contains acceptable deposits. Incidentally, the officials in charge of the KWPC are on their way ahead to the margin of two thousand cubic meters per day.

Manufacture of Desalination Units
During the recent decade, the enthusiasm shown to the country’s modernization endeavor is evident in Kish Island. An example of that is the manufacture of the MED desalinating units by the KWPC as a vital move to supply the drinking water of the southern regions of the Persian Gulf as well as the island itself. A typical KWPC-made MED desalinating unit can produce 1800 cubic meters of drinking water per day, meeting the demands of about ten thousand people.
All processes and procedures utilized in these desalinating units are controlled by microprocessors. Moreover, the interlocks and start stages are PLC-based or relay operated .
The central control equipment for regulating and displaying parameters and protecting the systems have been designed in such a way to signal warning messages whenever a deficiency occurs. So far, the KWPS has managed to manufacture three MED desalinating units, one of which has been installed in Kish, another one in Abu Moosa island, and the third one in Al-mahdi Aluminum Producing Complex in Bandar Abbas.
Ordered by Lavan Refinery, the KWPC is currently in the process of manufacturing two other MED desalinating units which are expected to be completed by the year end.
