Not sure if I would define water in Brazil as cheap, but recently a taxi driver from Florianópolis island told me he is quite surprised desalinized seawater is not so commonly used. I have already visited water treatment plants, which are quite energy-intensive and require a lot of chemicals, so maybe desalinized seawater would not be so bad at all.

Of course, but it takes more work than some dumb scheme.
