โœฆ Synopsis

Aspects

of the design and construction of three major seawater MSF in:callations, with some 14 evaporators each producing about 5 mgd (22,000 m3/day) are briefly reviewed. Initial problems were encountered with br%ne weir design at high brine rates, and painting. Remedial action was successfully incorporated in later plants in spite of the short timescale available. Recirculating brine pump sizing criteria and the performance of the on-load tube cleaning systems, and an external deaerator, are discussed. After-condenser corrosion on air ejector systems is also reviewed. Some modifications to plant specifications are suggested in the light of experience gained with these units.

The pretreatment methods which can be used to make a water suitablc for satisfactory processing in a reverse osmosis plant are discussed. This discussion is followed by case histories of plants operating on various waters in the Middle East from normal brackish waters to very strong brackish water (

The trend of building large desalination water stations with a large number of parallel units of 5-6 migd each is critically exammed. The opportunity to increase unit size to 12-13 migd for cross tube and to 20-25 nngd for long tube geometry has been discussed previously [l] . In this paper optlrnal
