Feasibility

The full implementation of the Urban Waste Water Treatment Directive (91/271/EEC) in Europe will contribute to obtain treated wastewaters of quite high quality that could be reused for certain applications or improved by polishing steps for uses with higher quality requirements. Even though reclaime

Ultrasound was applied to the control of membrane fouling development on-line in an anaerobic membrane bioreactor (AMBR). Experimental results showed that the higher the sludge concentration, the longer the ultrasonic irradiation time should be for membrane fouling control. When the AMBR operated un

Both nuclear and desalination technologies are mature and proven by experience, and are commercially available from a variety of suppliers. From the early days of the two technologies, it was realized that the power of the atom could be utilized to overcome two of the challenges to the development o

This paper stresses the different aspects related to remote water desalination plants which should be considered during the feasibility study and planning phases. The paper summarizes the related techno-economic factors and refers to an in-house developed computer routine that allows the planner to
