TE0349 : Advanced Desalination Processes: Desalination & Membrane Technology

This practical and highly-interactive course includes various practical sessions and exercises. Theory learnt will be applied using our state-of-the-art simulators.
This course is designed to provide participants with a detailed and up-to-date overview of Advanced Desalination Processes: Desalination and Membrane Technology. It covers the desalination technologies, basics of membrane technology, types of membrane processes and principles of reverse osmosis; the water chemistry in desalination, feed water sources and characteristics; the membrane materials and fabrication and membrane module configurations; the pre-treatment processes and advanced pre-treatment technologies; the fouling and scaling mechanisms, chemical treatment strategies and reverse osmosis system design; the nanofiltration and hybrid systems, thermal desalination and energy consumption in desalination; and the energy recovery devices (ERDS).
During this interactive course, participants will learn the brine management and disposal, operation of membrane systems and membrane cleaning techniques; the membrane degradation and lifespan, advanced monitoring and control systems; the health, safety and environmental considerations and troubleshooting and performance analysis; the advanced membrane technologies, sustainable desalination practices and digitalization in desalination; the economic and financial considerations, capital and operational costs and cost optimization strategies; and the ROI and payback analysis and policy and incentives.
