Managing water scarcity futures: identifying factors influencing water quality, risk perception and daily practices in urban environments after the introduction of desalination
(MDPI, 2021)
During the last two decades on a global scale, there has been a significant development of
desalination as a strategy to ensure the urban water supply in arid and semi-arid areas. Beyond issues
related to the higher ...
Technical and Environmental Opportunities for Freeze Desalination
(2022)
Freeze desalination (FD) is an efficient technology to produce fresh water through formation of ice crystals in the seawater or brackish water and subsequent separation of salt (or other components) from the pure ice ...
Desalination of brackish water for household drinking water consumption using typical plant seeds of semi arid regions
(2011)
The goal of this work was to study the salt sorption capacity of biological materials, such as seeds from several different plant species typical of semi arid regions, and their use in the desalination of brackish water ...
Desalinization and Wastewater Reuse as Technological Alternatives in an Arid, Tourism Booming Region of Mexico
(El Colegio de la Frontera Norte, A.C., 2008)
Membrane distillation: perspectives for sustainable and improved desalination.
(2017)
Membrane distillation (MD) is a promising separation technology that can help reducing the worldwide water-energy stress in a sustainable way. MD uses low-grade thermal energy to drive desalination, to remove non-volatile ...
Optimization of the mechanical vapor compression (MVC) desalination process using mathematical programming
(Desalination Publ, 2009-05)
A mathematical model for the optimization of the mechanical vapor compression (MVC) desalination process is presented. The mathematical model involves the real physical constraints for the evaporation process. Nonlinear ...
Investigation of the mass transfer processes during the desalination of water containing phenol and sodium chloride by electrodialysis
(ELSEVIER SCIENCE BV, 2008)
Oxidation processes are used in wastewater treatment when conventional processes are not effective due to the presence of recalcitrant organic contaminants, like phenol. However, the presence of ionic compounds associated ...
Anti-biofouling and desalination properties of thin film composite reverse osmosis membranes modified with copper and iron nanoparticles
(MDPI AG, 2019)
The anti-biofouling and desalination properties of thin film composite reverse osmosis membranes (TFC-RO), modified by the incorporation of copper and iron nanoparticles, were compared. Nanoparticles of metallic copper ...
