This means that SWRO involves a larger amount of fossil fuel and other energy sources for water production, which imposes a negative impact on the environment such as greenhouse gas emission. Therefore, the high-energy consumption of SWRO should be addressed to minimize environmental impacts and to allow for sustainable exploitation of seawater. However, the recent trend of energy consumption in SWRO seems to have reached a saturation point, which is still higher than theoretical minimum energy. To find new and innovative strategies for lowering current energy consumption, a comprehensive understanding of energy use in SWRO plants from theoretical analysis to actual energy consumption in real SWRO plants is required. This book can provide readers with information about the current state of energy consumption in actual SWRO plants, the fundamental understanding of energy use of SWRO plants from theoretical point of view, and advanced technologies and processes that could be applied for future energy reduction. In addition, this book will offer a detailed methodology for analyzing energy issues in seawater desalination. Through this book, readers will obtain an insight into how to deal with and analyze the energy issues in SWRO desalination. 606 $aTechnology & Engineering / Mining$2bisacsh 606 $aScience / Applied Sciences$2bisacsh 606 $aScience / Environmental Science$2bisacsh 606 $aScience 615 7$aTechnology & Engineering / Mining 615 7$aScience / Applied Sciences 615 7$aScience / Environmental Science 615 0$aScience 676 $a628.16744 702 $aHong$b Seungkwan 702 $aPark$b Kiho 702 $aKim$b Jungbin 702 $aAlayande$b Abayomi Babatunde 702 $aKim$b Youngjin 801 0$bScCtBLL 801 1$bScCtBLL 906 $aBOOK 912 $a9910832986103321 996 $aSeawater Reverse Osmosis (SWRO) Desalination$94305772 997 $aUNINA
