Is Desalination A Distillation? The traditional process of desalination is distillation, i.e. boiling and re-condensation of seawater to leave salt and impurities behind. What are the 3 methods of desalination? Desalination technologies The three major, large-scale thermal processes are multistage flash distillation (MSF), multi-effect distillation (MED), and vapor compression distillation (VCD).
