Membrane and desalination technologies

In this essential new volume, Volume 13: Membrane and Desalination Technologies, a panel of expert researchers provide a wealth of information on membrane and desalination technologies. An advanced chemical and environmental engineering textbook as well as a comprehensive reference book, this volume is of highvalue to advanced graduate and undergraduate students, researchers, scientists, and designers of water and wastewater treatment systems. This is an essential part of the Handbook of Environmental Engineering series, an incredible collection of methodologies that study the effects of pollution and waste in their three basic forms: gas, solid, and liquid. Chapters adopt the series format,employing methods of practical design and calculation illustrated by numerical examples, including pertinent cost data whenever possible, and exploring in great detail the fundamental principles of the field. Volume 13: Membrane and Desalination Technologies is an essential guide for researchers, highlighting the latest developments in principles of membrane technology, membrane systemsplanning and design, industrial and municipal waste treatments, desalination requirements, wastewater reclamation, biofiltration, and more. Coverage of theprinciples of membrane and desalination technologies and the fundamentals of water and wastewater treatment Emphasis on industry standards, trends in the field, municipal & industrial full-scale operations, POU and POE applications Examples of actual operating water and wastewater treatment plants based on membrane technology Examples of actual desalination plants based on both membraneand non-membrane technologies INDICE: MEMBRANE TECHNOLOGY: PAST, PRESENT AND FUTURE.- PREPARATION OF POLYMERIC MEMBRANES.- ADVANCED MEMBRANE FOULING CHARACTERIZATION IN FULL-SCALE REVERSE OSMOSIS PROCESSES.- MEMBRANE FILTRATION REGULATIONS AND DETERMINATION OFLOG REMOVAL VALUE (LRV).- TREATMENT OF INDUSTRIAL EFFLUENTS, MUNICIPAL WASTESAND POTABLE WATER BY MEMBRANE BIOREACTORS.- TREATMENT OF FOOD INDUSTRY WASTESBY MEMBRANE FILTRATION.- MEMBRANE SEPARATION: BASICS AND APPLICATIONS.- MEMBRANE SYSTEMS PLANNING AND DESIGN.- ADSORPTION DESALINATION – A NOVEL METHOD.- MEMBRANE PROCESSES FOR RECLAAMTION OF MUNICIPAL WASTEWATER.- POTABLE WATER BIOTECHNOLOGY, MEMBRANE FILTRATION AND BIOFILTRATION.- DESALINATION OF SEAWATER BYTHERMAL DISTILLATION AND ELECTRODIALYSIS TECHNOLOGIES.- DESALINATION OF SEAWATER BY REVERSE OSMOSIS.- MEMBRANE TECHNOLOGIES FOR POINT-OF-USE AND POINT-OF-ENTRY APPLICATIONS.- MEMBRANE TECHNOLOGIES FOR OIL-WATER SEPARATION.- GAS-SPARGED ULTRAFILTRATION: RECENT TRENDS, APPLICATIONS AND FUTURE CHALLENGES.- APPENDIX: CONVERSION FACTORS FOR ENVIRONMENTAL ENGINEERS.
