Parametric Economic and Engineering Evaluation Study of the Electrodialysis Process for Water Desalination

Description: From Abstract: "A parametric engineering and economic evaluation study of the electrodialysis (ED) process for water desalination has been conducted. A primary objective of this study was to evaluate present technology of ED process equipment in order to gain improvements in cost sensitive items. Results indicated that ED is competitive with the cheapest methods for desalting low salinity brackish waters."
