DESALINATION PROCESSES FOR MILITARY APPLICATION
2006
Williams, J. S. | Hodgson, Allan S.
This report summarizes the desalination processes currently available which lend themselves to military application. Membrane processes (electrodialysis and reverse osmosis) and thermal processes (multistage flash distillation and vapor compression distillation) are explained, and examples of the use of each type of equipment are cited. Design criteria are given for multistage flash distillation units utilizing waste heat from diesel generators. An optimization procedure is also given for similar units using direct-fired boilers.
