Increasing water demand and the deteriorating environment has continuously stressed the requirement for new technology and methods to attain optimized use of resources and desalination management, converting seawater into pure drinking water. In this age, the Internet of Things use allows us to optimize a series of previously complicated processes to perform and required enormous resources. One of these is optimizing the management of water treatment. This research presents an implementable water treatment model and suggests smart environment that can control water treatment plants. The proposed system gathers data and analysing to provide the most efficient approach for water desalination operations. The desalination framework integrates smart enabling technologies such as Cloud Portal, Network communication, Internet of Things, Sensors powered by solar energy with ancient water purification as part of seawater's desalination project. The proposed framework incorporates the new-age technologies, which are essential for efficient and effective operations of desalination systems. The implemented desalination dual membrane framework uses solar energy for purifying saline water using ancient methods to produce clean water for drinking and irrigation. The desalination produced 0.47 m3/l of freshwater from a saline concentration of 10 g/l, consuming 8.31 KWh/m3 energy for production from the prototype implementation, which makes desalination process cost effective.
