THE NEED FOR DESALINATION

LAND EARTH WATER 1 3 20 FRESH WATER 2 WATER FOR HUMAN USE ICEBERG

DESALINATION-OPTIONS
ONLY OPTION : CONVERSION OF SEA WATER INTO FRESH WATER
METHODS OF CONVERSION :. MEMBRANE TECHNOLOGY -REVERSE OSMOSIS (RO) -ELECTRODYALYSIS (ED) . THERMAL DESALIANTION - MULTI STAGE FLASH (MSF), -MULTI EFFECT DISTILLATION (MED), -THERMAL VAPOUR COMPRESSION (TVC), -MECHANICAL VAPOUR COMPRESSION (MVC). MOST TECHNO-ECONOMICALLY FEASIBLE -MED.

HISTORY & EVOLUTION OF MED (Multi-Effect Distillation)

ANCIENT PRACTICE 19TH CENTURY-NAVIGATION CREW USED SINGLE EFFECT EVAPORATION TECHNIQUE FOR OWN USE -VERY COSTLY AND NEEDED LOT OF THERMAL ENERGY - HIGH SPECIFIC HEAT CONSUMPTION
1950- MSF TECHNIQUE DEVELOPED HAVING SUBMERGED TUBES & CHARACTERISED BY LOW HEAT EXCHANGE COEFFICIENT - TEMP. DIFF, BETWEEN EFFECT WAS HIGH (5-10 OC) - TOP BRINE TEMP IS 70 OC LEADING TO SCALING & CORROSION

HISTORY & EVOLUTION OF MED (Multi-Effect Distillation)

EARLY 1960-THE NEW MSF WITH HORIZONTAL TUBES HAVING BETTER CONTROL ON SCALING PROBLEM

1973-THE FIRST MODERN MED WAS INTRODUCED INGULF REGION WITH A CAPACITY OF 125 TPD
1989-ABU DHABI WATER & ELECTRICITY AUTHORITY SELECTED MED ON A LARGE SCALE TO SUSTAIN THE DEVELOPING PROGRAMMES TODAY IT HAS SPREAD TO ALL PARTS OF THE WORLD & CAPACITY HAS INCREASED UP TO 20000 TPD AS A MODERN TECHNIQUE FOR SOLVING WATER CRISIS
