Energy Storage for Multi-generation: Desalination, Power, Cooling and Heating Applications is designed to help readers implement and manage highly-efficient energy storage enabled industrial processes. The book provides an overview on energy storage technologies, recent trends around the world, and a discussion on the sustainability components of energy storage in different applications. Case studies for integrated power-water production schemes integrated with energy storage are also included, along with tactics to critically evaluate drivers that influence energy storage integration into power-water production schemes, including desalination, tri-generation and poly-generation concepts and configurations.
This book will provide all engineers and researchers a better understanding of the application of renewable energy in desalination and the thermodynamic processes and laws involved.
