Electrochemical Desalination for a Sustainable Water Future
Fresh water is required to sustain life. However, the world is facing a global challenge to reliably supply its population with safe water due to shortages stemming from population growth, climate change, contamination of available fresh water supplies, and public policy. Presently, the United Nations estimates that one third of the world’s population ( 2.4 billion people) is living in water-st...
متن کاملSustainable Desalination : Environmental Approaches
The environmental issues of possible concern during construction and operation of desalination plants (mainly large-scale facilities) include impacts that are common to many coastal development projects (e.g. land use and aesthetic impacts), as well as specific impacts associated with the elements of the desalination system and auxiliary infrastructure. In the latter category these relate to th...
متن کاملDesalination and Water Treatment
Electrochemical characteristic parameters such as diffusional permeability, ion transport number, fi xed charge concentration and electrical resistance for a regenerated cellulose/polypropylene-supported membrane (RC/PP sample) in contact with NaCl solutions at different concentrations were determined. The effect of the polypropylene support on mass and charge transport was estimated by compari...
متن کاملDesalination and reuse of high-salinity shale gas produced water: drivers, technologies, and future directions.
In the rapidly developing shale gas industry, managing produced water is a major challenge for maintaining the profitability of shale gas extraction while protecting public health and the environment. We review the current state of practice for produced water management across the United States and discuss the interrelated regulatory, infrastructure, and economic drivers for produced water reus...
متن کاملCarbon footprint of water reuse and desalination: a review of greenhouse gas emissions and estimation tools
As population and water demand increase, there is a growing need for alternative water supplies from water reuse and desalination systems. These systems are beneficial to water augmentation; however, there are concerns related to their carbon footprint. This study compiles the reported carbon footprint of these systems from existing literature, recognizes general trends of carbon footprint of w...
