  • Since 1976, the Dead Sea’s level has dropped more than 100 feet, leaving its coastline pockmarked with thousands of sinkholes. NOVA follows the unprecedented endeavor to connect the Red Sea to the Dead Sea by way of a massive desalination plant - perhaps the world’s largest water chemistry experiment - as scientists race to save the Dead Sea and bring water to one of the driest regions on Earth.

    Ok, so we messed with the river that feeds the sea, so there's less water coming in, and we started mining the south and thus started increasing how much water the sea loses, oh my god, the sea is shrinking, how could this happen, who could have possibly predicted that the sea would shrink if we did things that make it lose water, oh, who could have seen this coming.

    As I understand it, the terrain makes a canal part of the way from the Red Sea to Dead Sea a possibility, but a pipeline would have to be used from the Mediterranean to Dead Sea. However, the drop to the Dead Sea could provide the pipe pressure for desalination to take place, making desalination very efficient, though fresh water would need to be pumped. Some of the ponds in the southern dead sea (about half of which are Jordanian?) could be diverted to producing sea salt using the brine. A major project still on the drawing board after decades of planning.

    Instead of putting the brine directly into the dead sea it could go into a settling pond where it would be mixed 50/50 with dead sea water to precipitate gypsum , then the mixed brine could be injected into the ground about a kilometer away from the dead sea shore, allowing the brine to absorb natural minerals required by the dead sea.
    This could also be done with the brine from the Mediterranean desalination plants. Thus giving plenty of brine to the dead sea.
    Then the number of desalination plants on the Mediterranean could be increased reducing demand for Jordan water. A dam could restrict the flow out of the sea of Galilee allowing it to recover.
    New nanotechnology filters can reduce the energy required for desalination by half allowing twice the water for the same cost.
    The solutions are there if Israel has the will.

    I stood on Masada back in 96 and you could see clearly even back then how much the dead sea had receded. From this documentary its shocking (but not surprising) how much further it has shrunk.
    Back then, there was talking about running a pipe from the Mediterranean. I wonder what happened to that plan.

    I wonder! Instead of Pumping Water from the Sea of Galilee to the Dead Sea which is more than 110 Km why not pumping from the Mediterranean Sea which should be about 95 km if you run the Pipework along the Roads. You will need High-Pressure Piping, sets of Centrifugal Pumps, and gate valves to prime the Piping system and have a perpetual suction flow! That you may generate a considerable amount of electricity. To pay for the Project and more.

    If the waters of the Red Sea were to mix with those of the Dead Sea, the result would be an interesting chemical and ecological reaction due to their differing compositions.
    Salinity Differences: The Dead Sea is one of the saltiest bodies of water on Earth, with a salinity of around 34.2%, whereas the Red Sea's salinity is much lower, typically around 40 parts per thousand (ppt). So, when these waters mix, there would likely be some dilution of the Dead Sea's high salinity by the lower salinity of the Red Sea.
    Chemical Reactions: The mixing of waters with different compositions could lead to chemical reactions. For example, the Dead Sea contains a high concentration of minerals, particularly salts like magnesium, potassium, and calcium chlorides. The Red Sea has a different mineral composition. When these mix, there could be precipitation of certain minerals due to changes in solubility caused by the altered conditions.
    Ecological Impact: The Dead Sea is famously inhospitable to most forms of life due to its extreme salinity. The Red Sea, however, supports a diverse array of marine life. Mixing these waters could affect the ecology of the Dead Sea, potentially introducing organisms from the Red Sea and altering the balance of its ecosystem.
    Buoyancy: The Dead Sea is known for its high buoyancy due to its high salt content. Mixing with the Red Sea, which has lower salinity, might reduce this buoyancy somewhat, although it's unlikely to eliminate it entirely.
    Overall, while it's an interesting thought experiment, the logistics and potential consequences of mixing these two bodies of water on a large scale are complex and would likely require careful consideration.

    By their own admission, the advent of western culture meassuring everything in billions of dolars is bringing changes that will end the beauty of this land. For as long as human memory goes back, this place was basically unchanged, in the last 75 years western culture in its vast exploitation of resources has wrought havoc to a balance that existed for at least thousands of years, and yet we think our science can change it for the better. The Nile is more than just a river! The message is clear for those who want to see it: What we are doing is unsustainable, and all the fighting between people for this land will become moot, for it will no longer be inhabitable.

    Clearly it would be sensible to undertake natural salination for any piped water powered by wind. However it would be less than obvious to add sulphites and gysum as any solution?
    The correct approach surely is just to mine gypsum and sulphites from the water and sell it?

    Something they left out of the video is that the dead sea have been connected to the mediterranean sea once upon a time.
    So I don't get why they release mediterranean brine back to the mediterranean sea and seem so focused on bringing red sea brine into it, which it never have been connected to.
    Why not see if a combination of both brines might reduces the chemical changing risks to the sea? Or make the gypsum reaction happen in a pool in the desalination plant and remove it in one of the filters there?
    Or use red sea brine for the southern mining part of the lake, so less water has to pumped out of the northern part to the shallow ponds for evaporation?
    Israel also might be able to increase desalination if they transport the brine from new dsplants to the dead sea which might have a better chemical conposition to it for the dead sea. Maybe also combined with water power plant, since the dead sea is lower than the medditerranean sea? New dsplants might also reduce the outtake from the sea of galilee so they spare it from drying out aswell.
    They have a lot more options with potential synergies to look into and analyze.

      It would be the wrong kind of water and would destroy the ecosystem. There was a plan to let water in from the Mediterranean and make megawatts of electricity from the height differential. The problem will solve itself when the next Ice Age returns. Look up the work of Professor Steve Goldstein, a geochemist at Columbia University's Lamont-Doherty Earth Observatory, US. They drilled cores to look at what happened in the last Ice age when the Dead Sea was 260 metres higher than it was in 2011.

    This projects abandonment was announced in 2021 by the Jordanian Government, citing lack of Israeli interest. While also producing power, this project would have required massive amounts of additional power generation. Many negative ecological consequences created by the fruition of this project were discovered throughout research of the project.

    Why not pipe from the Mediterranean sea @74 km away vs from the red sea @104 km away?
    The Mediterranean is resupplied by the rising sea levels of the world's oceans. The Red Sea is already in decline. Yes, there's more challenging terrain, but the infrastructure is expensive either way

    It's not worth saving. It's not as if the Dead Sea is some sort of vibrant, thriving ecosystem, it's essentially just a large pool of toxic water. And to spend millions trying to save it, by putting other bodies of water at risk too, that's just absurd.
    Yes, the place has a water shortage, but there's a good reason for that - there's many, many, many people living in an area that cannot support so many people. That works out to be a self rectifying problem.

      @@rogeco60 …and that means it’s not toxic? I’m not saying people can’t swim in it, I’m saying it’s too toxic to support an ecosystem. Note the entire absence of an ecosystem in the Dead Sea. That’s because it’s toxic. Please don’t respond yet again about tourists, we’ve already covered that, that doesn’t make it any less toxic. If this confuses you then I don’t think you know what toxicity actually is.
