Desalination tanks were devices designed to extract salt from seawater for industrial use. Four blocky gray desalination tanks were built along the side of the factory designated Coronet-SFS-14 in Coronet City on the planet Corellia.[1]
In 13 BBY,[2] a human worker took shelter between the tanks when the criminals Han and Qi'ra raced past in a M-68 landspeeder while fleeing from the White Worms gang's[3] A-A4B truckspeeder,[1] which also passed the tanks.[3]
Behind the scenes[edit | edit source]
Desalination tanks first appeared in the 2018 Anthology Series film, Solo: A Star Wars Story,[3] and were first identified in the accompanying reference book Solo: A Star Wars Story The Official Guide, which was written by Pablo Hidalgo.[1] The Corellia speeder chase locations in Solo were filmed at Fawley Power Station or Tilbury in England.[4]
