Desalination Technology: Health and Environmental Impacts covers
the latest developments in desalination, examining the
environmental and public health-related impacts of these
technologies. Written by international experts, the text presents
specifications for assessing water quality, technical issues
associated with desalination technologies, and the chemical aspects
of desalinated water and its microbiology.
The book also discusses environmental protection issues that
assist in the optimization of proposed and existing desalination
facilities to ensure that nations and consumers enjoy the benefits
of the expanded access to desalinated water. This includes coverage
of health and environmental issues such as energy conservation and
sustainability as well as protection of delicate coastal ecosystems
and groundwater from contamination by surface disposal of
concentrates-challenges that must be addressed during the design,
construction, and operation of a desalination facility.
Development of new and improved desalinization technologies,
including major cost reduction trends, have significantly broadened
the opportunities to access large quantities of safe water in many
parts of the world. And while there are many books available on
desalination, this book's unusual approach blends technical
coverage of the latest technologies with coverage of the
environmental and public health-related impacts of these
technologies, setting it apart from other resources. It provides
technical guidance based on the practical expertise of a balanced
group of international scientists and engineers.
