DESALINATION RESOURCES

• Breakthrough Recyclable Polyimide Membranes Transform Wastewater And High-Salinity Water Treatment

  Researchers have developed polyimide-based membranes for membrane distillation (MD) that overcome three persistent issues in membranes for water treatment and gas separations: the need for pore-forming chemicals that prevent recycling, performance degradation due to pore wetting and fouling, and the inherent trade-off between high water flux and selectivity.

• Cut Costs, Cut Timelines: Rethink Your Next Water Project

  Small municipalities and industrial sites face constant pressure: deliver safe, stable water with limited resources and tight deadlines. Traditional on-site construction can stretch project schedules by months and introduce quality and cost risks. By shifting much of the fabrication off-site, these risks are dramatically reduced.

• From The War Of Currents To The Water Grid: Lessons In Infrastructure, Innovation, And Integration

  How Edison vs. Tesla shapes today's approach to sustainable water systems.

• Megadroughts Are Here To Stay, And U.S. Water Utilities Need To Adapt

  Researchers warn that California and other states affected by megadroughts — periods of drought lasting 20+ years — will have to accept this as the new normal. That means rethinking the water cycle and finding new, more sustainable water sources.
• Redesigning Brine Diffusers: Optimizing Brine Dispersion Performance At The Hadera Desalination Plant

  This article explores how IDE Technologies leveraged advanced in-house simulation capabilities to deliver a revised brine diffuser design, significantly improving both environmental outcomes and operational efficiency.

• RO Membrane Protection For A Desalination Plant In Mejillones, Chile

  Read about a seawater desalination plant that presented with several performance issues and chose the HOD UV system to control biofouling on the RO membranes.

• New Research Could Extend Membrane Life And Lower Desalination Costs

  As water-scarce regions clamor for answers, developments in membrane anti-scaling bring desalination closer to viability.
• The Benefits And Challenges Of Desalination

  Leaning on a wealth of experience, an engineer lays the groundwork for successful, cost-effective desalination projects.
• At The Waterfront Of ESG And Environmental Responsibility

  Environmental, social, and governance (ESG) policy can yield a powerful outcome when integrated into a corporate strategy. Though strategizing and rolling out this assessment can be time- and resource-intensive, when done correctly, companies will realize several benefits in the short and long term.
• Innovative Technologies For Water Conservation And Management

  One of the globe's major problems is the lack of water, but due to the growing demand for water in the fields of agriculture and industry, as well as a population shift to cities, efficient water use is made more urgent. The good news is that there are newly implemented technologies that deal with the issue of water conservation and management.
