ISBN10: 3642011497, ISBN13: 9783642011498, [publisher: Springer, Berlin, Springer Berlin Heidelberg, Springer] Hardcover Druck auf Anfrage Neuware - Printed after ordering - A growing proportion of the world's population is dependent on Seawater Desalination as a source of fresh water for both potable and civil use. One of the main drawbacks of conventional desalination technologies is the substantial energy requirement, which is facing cost increases in the global energy market. 'Seawater Desalination' presents an overview of conventional and non-conventional technologies, with a particular focus on the coupling of renewable energies with desalination processes.The first section of this book presents, in a technical but reader-friendly way, an overview of currently-used desalination processes, from thermal to membrane processes, highlighting the relevant technical features, advantages and disadvantages, and development potential. It also gives a rapid insight into the economic aspects of fresh water production from seawater.The second section of the book presents novel processes which use Renewable Energies for fresh water production. From the first solar still evaporators, which artificially reproduced the natural cycle of water, technology has progressed to develop complex systems to harness energy from the sun, wind, tides, waves, etc. and then to use this energy to power conventional or novel desalination processes. Most of these processes are ...
