This is the second guidebook on commercial membrane technology written by a team of membrane technology professionals and published by Balaban Desalination Publications. The first guidebook covers mainly brackish and seawater desalination technology and applications. This guidebook is dedicated to the membrane technologies applied in wastewater reclamation processes. The reasons for a separate book are due to the unique treatment challenges, and highly reliable specialized treatment technologies are required for water reuse. Advanced wastewater reclamation usually entails a number of treatment steps, heavily relying on membrane technology in achieving targets of final effluent quality. The treatment process could consist of secondary effluent treated by membrane filtration followed by reverse osmosis and UV/H2O2 oxidation. including membrane bioreactors. The objective of this book is to describe commercial treatment technologies and explain in simple engineering terms modern membrane applications of wastewater reclamation processes. Examples of design and process calculations and case studies illustrate methods of system design, calculation of process parameters and evaluation of process economics. This book intends to serve as a reference for configuration and design processes of membrane systems in wastewater reclamation and reuse applications for project engineers, plant designers, planners, utility directors and operations managers, involved in municipal and industrial reclamation projects. The book provides information on practical approaches of these technologies and processes to scientists and engineers interested in commercial wastewater reclamation application.
