Silica and silicate precipitation as limiting factors in high-recovery reverse osmosis operations
The seawater desalination system was to be economically efficient and energetically optimized. This requires careful interpretation of the available data, i.e. droplet losses as a function of inclination angle and condenser width, mass transfer vrom the evaporator to the condenser as a function of distance, temperature, and salt concentration, as w...

In dieser Studie wird der Stand der Technik der solaren Wasserentsalzung, basierend auf der einfachen solaren Destillation, untersucht sowie die Gruende fuer den bisher relativ geringen Einsatz dieser Technik erlaeutert. Die zunehmende Verknappung von Suesswasser (Trinkwasser), durch steigenden Wasserverbrauch, durch die Abholzung von (Regen)-Waeld...
Desalination by membrane distillation (MD) is a theoretically well known thermal desalination process that can utilize solar energy or waste energy. In order to evaluate the performance of a solar driven desalination system by MD-process under real conditions a prototype plant has been operated on the island of Ibiza between May 1993 and December 1...

A bilateral project to test water pumping equipment utilising renewable energy resources was performed in a cooperative effort between German ans Egyptian entities. The German contribution to the task was funded by the German Ministry for Research and Technology. A wind-electric pumping system was installed at a farm in East of Oweinat. The viabili...
