Desalination Technologies: Design and Operation

Desalination Technologies: Design and Operation sets the scene for desalination technologies as long term solutions to freshwater demand by analyzing the current demand for water, available water resources and future predicted demand. It captures recent developments in thermal desalination (multistage flash desalination, multi-effect evaporation, vapour compression), membrane desalination (forward osmosis, reverse osmosis, pressure retarded, electrodialysis, membrane distillation, ultra-, nano-, and micro-filtration), and alternative processes such as freezing and ion exchange. Both dynamic and steady state models (from short cut, simple, to detail) of various desalination processes are discussed. The book is intended for (under)graduate students in chemical engineering and postgraduate researchers and industrial practitioners in desalination. Provides the fundamentals of different desalination processesIncludes desalination modelling from short and simple to detailed and more advancedDiscusses desalination optimization and synthesis to reduce environmental impactHandles thermo-physical property models and correlationsIncludes case studies to give a clear and better understanding of desalination INDICE: 1.
