Tour the Kay Bailey Hutchison Desalination Plant (MAP) and learn how the plant uses reverse osmosis to transform brackish water into fresh drinking water. The world's largest inland desalination plant, KBH uses a pressurized process by which raw water passes through fine membranes that separate salts and other contaminants from the water thus producing fresh, drinkable water. Discover how El Paso Water is ensuring the availability of water for El Paso into the distant future as well as helping El Paso to conserve our most precious commodity: water.

After touring the plant, take a guided tour of the TecH20 Center exhibits – great for kids, students and adults.
