This paper describes the theoretical rationale for a new low temperature phase-change desalination process, and six … examples of applications to illustrate how this process can be engineered for sustainable desalination. In this process … any mechanical energy input. Thermodynamic advantages and benefits of low temperature phase-change desalination are …

A second law analysis of a reverse osmosis desalination plant is carried out using reliable seawater exergy formulation …. The analysis is performed using reverse osmosis desalination plant data and compared with results previously published … new analysis, it is found that the studied reverse osmosis desalination plant has very low second law efficiency (<2 …

Although reverse osmosis (RO) is currently the most energy efficient desalination technology, it still requires a great … pressure and hence, energy. In this paper, PRO is evaluated in conjunction with RO, in a system called RO-PRO desalination, to … reduce the energy requirement of seawater RO desalination. RO-PRO specific energy consumption was modeled using RO conditions …

behaviour, a combined wind-hydro configuration is proposed in collaboration with an appropriate desalination plant. The proposed …

services and freshwater. Currently, oil and gas are the principal fuels for electricity generation and desalination, but this …
