Ion Selectivity of Electrodialysis for Desalination and Reuse Enhancement
Selective separation of mono- and multi-valent ions has important applications in water reuse, desalination, and salt production, by adjusting ion composition to meet product water quality requirements. In this study, […]
Broad Application of ZLD Technology for Desalination Concentrate Management
The use of alternative, lower quality sources, such as brackish groundwater, saline surface water, and recycled wastewater (i.e., for potable reuse) are rapidly becoming an integral component of long-term portfolio […]
Low-Cost Recovery of Blowdown Water in Power Generation Facilities Using the CERRO Process
One of the largest uses of water in the United States and the world is for cooling systems in power generation. Closed-cycle cooling towers produce a concentrated water stream (called […]
