Proposing an Ultrapure Water Unit Coupled to an Existing Reverse Osmosis Desalination Plant and its Exergy Analysis

In this study, three desalination exergy analysis models including the Cerci et al. model (Model A), Drioli B) and electrolyte solution C), were developed on an existing reverse osmosis (RO) plant in Oman (Plant ALG). A modified ultrapure water (UPW) unit fed by Plant ALG has also been proposed A) based technology used a UPW operated under climate of Europe European river B). The most suitable for characterizing production was used. Model C found to be proper among its counterparts. It reflected electrolytic behavior relevant streams considered as appropriate model. major destruction sites identified, efficiency calculated. electro-de-ionization (EDI) RO highest destructive components A.
