Summary:

Analysis and Design of Membrane Process: A Systems Approach highlights the fundamentals and emerging technology in the field of industrial reverse osmosis desalination and membrane processes. It provides a unique, systems engineering perspective of membrane operation, focusing on analysis, design, and optimization of membrane processes. An explanation of mathematical and optimization knowledge is introduced and then applied throughout the book. Key topics include: --Hydrodynamics and mass transfer in reverse osmosis (RO) membranes --Predictive models for RO module performance --Analysis and optimization of brackish and seawater RO desalination --Energy production using pressure retarded osmosis (PRO) --Integration of RO and PRO for energy-efficient desalination --Dynamic operation of batch RO and batch PRO This work is essential reading for researchers who are interested in membrane-based processes, and those working within the water industry as well as undergraduate and graduate students.

Contents:

Introduction - Three-Dimensional CFD Analysis of Hydro-dynamics and Mass Transfer in Spacer-Filled RO Channels - Quasi-2D Predictive Modeling of an RO Module from Experimental Data - Model-Based Optimization of Specific Energy Consumption in Seawater RO - Optimization and Plant Validation of BWRO Operation - Systematic Analysis and Optimization of Pressure Retarded Osmosis for Power Generation - Hybrid RO-PRO for Energy-Efficient Desalination - Batch Operation of RO and PRO.
