Renewable energy sources utilized for membrane desalination processes
2023, Green Membrane Technologies towards Environmental SustainabilityState-of-the-art of renewable energy sources used in water desalination: Present and future prospects
2021, DesalinationCitation Excerpt :The evidence for this is provided by the pilot installations operating worldwide and by the conclusions related to their operation presented, among others, by Kvajic [143] and Al Madani [144]. Research was also conducted for installations located in Japan [145–146] and India [147–148]. The evaluation of operating parameters of such installations was presented by Al Madani [144] as well as by Ortiz et al. [149] who put forward a mathematical model making it possible to predict the operation of an ED system powered by a PV installation.
Renewable energies driven electrochemical wastewater/soil decontamination technologies: A critical review of fundamental concepts and applications
2020, Applied Catalysis B: EnvironmentalCitation Excerpt :The PV-ED system was able to operate for 8 h during the day at a flow rate of 120 l h−1. Similar studies were conducted by Kuroda et al. (1987) [164] with the electricity of the PV either directly connected to the ED plant or via battery system. Since then, many studies have been conducted on feasibility and potential of PV-ED for the commercial production of the fresh/potable water from sea/brackish water [165–167].
Towards a low-energy seawater reverse osmosis desalination plant: A review and theoretical analysis for future directions
2020, Journal of Membrane ScienceCitation Excerpt :The energy requirements for the state-of-the-art seawater reverse osmosis (SWRO) process have usually been estimated as only 2–4 kWh/m3 in recent years [1,3–5]. Compared to other desalination technologies, such as multi-staged flash (MSF) [6,7], multi-effect distillation (MED) [6–8], membrane distillation (MD) [9–14], and electrodialysis (ED) [6,15,16], the SWRO process demonstrates relatively low energy consumption. Thus, recent large-scale seawater desalination plants have usually been constructed to use the RO method [17,18].
