Pretreatment for Reverse Osmosis Desalination is a comprehensive reference on all key existing and emerging seawater pretreatment technologies used for desalination. The book focuses on reverse osmosis membrane desalination, which at present is the most widely applied technology for production of fresh drinking water from highly saline water sources (brackish water and seawater). Each chapter contains examples illustrating various pretreatment technologies and their practical implementation. Provides in-depth overview of key theoretical concepts associated with desalination pre-treatmentGives an insight into the latest trends in membrane separation technologyIncorporates analytical methods and guidelines for monitoring pretreatment systems INDICE: 1.
