Water Desalting Planning Guide for Water Utilities

Informationen zum Autor Founded in 1881, the AMERICAN WATER WORKS ASSOCIATION (AWWA) is the authoritative resource for knowledge, information, and advocacy to improve the quality and supply of drinking water in North America and beyond. The AWWA is the largest organization of water professionals in the world. The AWWA advances public health, safety, and welfare by uniting the efforts of the full spectrum of the drinking water community. Klappentext A real-world guide to successful water desalination systems for public water utilitiesThe Water Desalting Planning Guide for Water Utilities offers practical guidance on the planning, design, and implementation of successful water desalination systems for decision-makers at public water utilities. Complete coverage ranges from vital background material on regulatory and standards issues to a wide range of insightful case studies illustrating how the latest processes work in the real world, including reverse osmosis, membrane technology, thermal technology, ion exchange, and freeze/thaw systems.In a clear and easy-to-use format, the Water Desalting Planning Guide for Water Utilities covers the conversion of saline water sources and cost data, along with all the key issues a utility typically faces when implementing a desalting project, including:* The pros and cons of most major treatment technologies* System selection and demand analysis* Concentrate disposal methods* Estimating operation and maintenance costs* Project delivery alternatives* And much morePacked with dozens of informative photographs and illustrations, Water Desalting Planning Guide for Water Utilities is an invaluable resource for water treatment engineers and operators, environmental professionals, and professional and civic groups involved with land permitting, zoning, and regulation. Zusammenfassung Written by a select group of industry experts, under the supervision of the leading organization in water utilities, AWWA, this reference is the first practical guide to water desalination systems. Desalination is the process used to remove dissolved salts from seawater or highly-mineralized waters so that the water becomes usable for human and/or agricultural and industrial usage. This book offers authoritative guidance on the planning, design, and implementation of a successful water desalination system for public water utilities. Inhaltsverzeichnis Preface. Acknowledgments.
