An in-depth guide to reverse osmosis desalinationThis Water Environment Federation and WateReuseAssociation publication provides comprehensive information on the planning and engineering of brackish and seawater desalination projects for municipal water supplies. After a brief overview of widely used desalination technologies, Desalination Engineering focuses on reverse osmosis desalination. The book discusses basic principles, planning and environmental review of projects, design and selection of key desalination plant components, desalinated water posttreatment, and concentrate management. Guidelines on sizing and cost estimation of desalination plant facilities are also included in this practical resource.
COVERAGE INCLUDES:
Source water quality characterization
Fundamentals of reverse osmosis desalination
Planning considerations
Environmental review and permitting
Intakes for source water collection
Intake pump stations
Source water screening and conditioning
Sand removal, sedimentation, and dissolved air flotation
Pretreatment by granular media filtration
Pretreatment by membrane filtration
Comparison of granular media and membrane pretreatment
Reverse osmosis separation
Post-treatment of desalinated water
Desalination plant discharge management
Desalination project cost estimates
