Book excerpt: With the increasing need for fresh water sources, especially in California with its "Water Crisis" coupled with the global "Energy Crisis" there is rising desire for fresh water production through renewable means. A study was conducted to evaluate the most efficient design for a solar powered desalination system. Two basic design types were considered. The first design type is using photoelectrochemical (PEC) cells to produce hydrogen, which would then be used to produce thermal energy to desalinate by distillation. The second design type is using photovoltaics (PV) to produce electrical energy to desalinate by membrane. The study concluded that a PV-reverse osmosis (RO) system would be the most energy and space efficient. An RO system was assembled and tested to show feasibility. Future work includes powering the RO system using PV and calculating the system efficiency. Focusing on emergency drinking water applications, a single element design was proposed. This single element design is meant for a compact, portable solar powered desalination system.

This book was released on 2013 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Access to safe, clean drinking water is a major challenge for many communities. These communities are often near seawater and/or brackish groundwater sources, making desalination a possible solution. Unfortunately, desalination is energy intensive and a reliable, inexpensive power supply is also challenging for remote locations. Photovoltaic reverse osmosis systems (PVRO) can be used to provide water for underserved communities. A feasibility study which demonstrates the economic viability of such systems is discussed here. PVRO systems are assembled from mass-produced modular components. This approach reduces manufacturing costs. However, designing a system optimized for a specific location is difficult. For even a small inventory of components, the number of design choices is enormous. A designer with significant expertise is required to tailor a PVRO system for a given location, putting this technology out of reach of many communities. This thesis develops a modular design architecture which can be implemented in a computer program to enable non-experts to configure systems from inventories of modular components. This architecture is not limited to PVRO systems, but can also be used to design other systems composed of modular components such as cars, electronics, and computers. The method uses a hierarchy of filters to limit the design space based on design principles and calculations. The system is then configured from the reduced design space using optimization methods and detailed system models. In this thesis, the modular design architecture is implemented for PVRO systems. A set of detailed physics-based system models are developed to enable this process. A novel method of representing a PVRO system using a graph is developed to enable rapid evaluation of different system configurations. This modeling technique is validated using the MIT Experimental PVRO system constructed as part of this research. A series of case studies are conducted to validate the modular design approach for PVRO systems. The first set of case studies considers a deterministic solar input and water demand. The design goal is to determine the lowest cost system that meets the water demand requirements. It is shown that the method is able to tailor systems for a wide range of locations and water demands from a large system inventory. The validity of these solutions is demonstrated by simulating a custom designed system in the wrong location. Another case study shows that the approach can be used to determine market potential of new components. The second set of case studies considers variations in the solar radiation and water demand. The design goal is to determine the lowest cost PVRO system that meets the water demand profile with a specified probability. Two methods that use historical solar insolation and water demand to account for variations are presented. The first method characterizes the historical data and develops models to synthetically generate solar insolation and water demand profiles, and then simulates the system performance over 100 years to calculate the loss-of-water probability. In the second method, distributions of solar radiation and water demand are calculated from historical data and used to directly calculate the probability of running out of water in the worst month of the year. Both methods are implemented and shown to produce feasible system configurations. The direct calculation method is shown to reduce the required computation time and is suitable for different systems with variable inputs.

This book was released on 2015-04-07 with total page 551 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The book assembles the latest research on new design techniques in water supplies using desalinated seawater. The authors examine the diverse issues related to the intakes and outfalls of these facilities. They clarify how and why these key components of the facilities impact the cost of operation and subsequently the cost of water supplied to the consumers. The book consists of contributed articles from a number of experts in the field who presented their findings at the "Desalination Intakes and Outfalls" workshop held at King Abdullah University of Science and Technology (KAUST) in Saudi Arabia in October, 2013. The book integrates coverage relevant to a wide variety of researchers and professionals in the general fields of environmental engineering and sustainable development.

This book was released on 2012 with total page 96 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The purpose of this thesis is to design and validate a controllable energy recovery device with application to photovoltaic powered reverse osmosis (PVRO). The energy consumption of a reverse osmosis plant depends significantly on the efficiency of its energy recovery process. This work presents a concept for a controllable energy recovery process, so that a system can operate optimally based on the incoming water and power characteristics. The design presented here uses a variable nozzle and a Pelton wheel to recover energy from the high pressure concentrated brine exiting the reverse osmosis membrane. The components are designed, analytically modeled using fundamental engineering principles, and experimentally tested. The experimental data is then used to check the validity of the formulated concept models. This research encompasses the modeling and testing of a variable nozzle using a needle valve to control the flow through the nozzle, and also of a Pelton bucket, to examine the effectiveness of the momentum transfer from a high velocity jet to the Pelton wheel. This research is done to examine the feasibility of this concept for potential implementation on a full scale PVRO system. The component validation is performed to prove that the concept is effective and competitive with other options.
