Reuse

Following laboratory-scale research as part of the LIFE programme, a pilot plant with a capacity of 30 m3/d was built. This plant allowed the optimization of the parameters necessary for the engineering analysis, as well as the extrapolation of results and the development of a treatment plant with a

When Ghubrah MSF Unit no. 2 was commissioned in 1982, it was found that condensate from inter and after condensers was not suitable for boiler feed water as it contains CO2. This study discusses the modification carried out to re-use this condensate by connecting it to the last stage distillate tray

The paper describes a case of rationalization of the use of the waters of a textile factory located in the northern part of Italy. The water used in the factory comes from deep wells located about 170 m below the level of the factory. The yearly used amount of water is about 540,000 m3. Inside the f

Faced with environmental and water shortage problems at their Tutuka Power Station, Eskom, the South African Power Company approached Envig to assist them in finding a solution. This was achieved by the installation of a spiral reverse osmosis (SRO) plant to treat 12 Mld of mine water and spent cool

With an ever-growing world-wide demand for water and decreasing availability, emerging technologies such as ultrafiltration (UF) hold the key to future water treatment. Two applications to use unconventional sources for water production are described. The reuse of effluent of wastewater treatment pl
